Daniel&#8217;s impressive work ethic never fails to deliver. He consistently releases fantastic new <a href=\"https:\/\/licensing.routenote.com\/collection\/cinematic-travel-music\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">cinematic <\/a>compositions, and the quality of each new release only exceeds that of the last. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Daniel describes himself as a &#8216;minimalist piano composer&#8217;, however the quantity of his work is anything but minimalist. Having amassed a staggering 100 million streams in total across his <a href=\"https:\/\/open.spotify.com\/artist\/6FU6gwUc2OBtUA6TVQLo6C?si=cNyY60siRpehhfMW4PCBwA\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">streaming platforms<\/a>, it&#8217;s no wonder that the name Borrtex has caught the attention of industry giants such as <a href=\"https:\/\/open.spotify.com\/artist\/0YC192cP3KPCRWx8zr8MfZ?si=DAa95CwQTJOUmX14YoBbYQ\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Hans Zimmer<\/a>, <a href=\"https:\/\/open.spotify.com\/artist\/2M4eNCvV3CJUswavkhAQg2?si=ngcbqbNtQvy5DPCTvwvsqQ\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">James Newton Howard<\/a> and <a href=\"https:\/\/open.spotify.com\/artist\/5qBZETtyzfYnXOobDXbmcD?si=2rptoOq_SRq7SdDGLh3tWA\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Danny Elfman<\/a>. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><em>Digital Distraction<\/em> begins with tentative strings, accompanied by a slow, <a href=\"https:\/\/licensing.routenote.com\/collection\/meditation-ambience\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">ambient <\/a>atmosphere which peacefully washes over the listener. True to his aforementioned self-description, minimalist piano chords politely enter the soundscape. A sombre, wistful tone is set. Bolder strings are introduced to reinforce the harmonic mood, giving the piece an even more heightened sense of emotion. Even at the halfway mark, it&#8217;s clear that <em>Digital Distraction<\/em> is the perfect instrumental for syncing to <a href=\"https:\/\/licensing.routenote.com\/blog\/cinematic-playlist-now-available-on-synchedin-spotify-profile\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">cinematic videos<\/a>, <a href=\"https:\/\/licensing.routenote.com\/blog\/how-to-soundtrack-indie-films-on-a-budget\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">indie films<\/a> and other emotive content. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Interestingly, Borrtex released this single alongside an additional iteration of the same piece of music. The alternative version features narration from an elderly sounding gentlemen. The narration tells a brief anecdote on how time spent with loved ones mere decades ago was more cherished than it is in today&#8217;s digital age. The phrase &#8220;maybe we no longer see the difference between solitude and loneliness&#8221; particularly hits home in this narrated version. Combined with the emotive themes set by Borrtex&#8217;s artful use of harmony, the narration perfectly ties in an important moral. The devices that were supposed to bring us together in actual fact keep us less connected than before. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<hr class=\"wp-block-separator is-style-default\" \/>\n\n\n\n<p>You can download and sync both Borrtex&#8217;s <em>Digital Distraction &#8211; Instrumental<\/em> and <em>Digital Distraction &#8211; Narrated<\/em> for your online content exclusively from RouteNote Licensing. <a href=\"https:\/\/licensing.routenote.com\/about-us\/pricing\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Sign up<\/a> today from just $4.99 a month for unlimited downloads of Borrtex&#8217;s entire discography, and much, much more! <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><br><br><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Borrtex adds to his ever-expanding discography with his beautifully cinematic new ambient instrumental Digital Distraction.
