Everything one hears in ‘Heart Calls Love’ is highly intentional. In fact, it’s a vibrant, three-dimensional image stemming directly from Larry Karpenko’s imaginative artistry. From the eclectic, nuanced production, packed with organic, wholesome instrumentation and synthy atmospheres, to the American singer’s luscious, otherworldly vocals, the record manages to wrap the listeners into a triumph of nostalgic euphoria and poignant energy, the perfect match for Karpenko’s romantic and meaningful songwriting.
‘Heart Calls Love’ seems to have one mission and one mission only: celebrating love and the longing for it. Larry explains that in great detail: “A personal journey of wanting to be loved and understood. Also, the idea that love is worth waiting for, where one has to be patient for the right person, is introduced.” We deeply relate to it, in a world where romanticism and the yearning for companionship seem to have gained negative connotations. Karpenko dresses such a message with a politely uplifting, positive livery.
Recorded at Kreation Records in Southern California, ‘Heart Calls Love’ ends up being a multi-faceted, complex offering, although on the surface it might appear simple. It’s this balance between the song’s playful, amicable façade and its deeper core that makes it such a valuable record.
