St. Lucia
Even in the urban wilds of Brooklyn, there may be no one else like Jean-Philip Grobler, aka St. Lucia. Originally from Johannesberg, St. Lucia grew up performing with the Drakensberg Boys Choir School. When the choir wasn't traveling - they toured Japan, Australia, Europe and more - they stayed in an enclave tucked in the South African mountains, learning everything from Bach to minimalist opera.
A young musician could hardly find better training. Read Full BioEven in the urban wilds of Brooklyn, there may be no one else like Jean-Philip Grobler, aka St. Lucia. Originally from Johannesberg, St. Lucia grew up performing with the Drakensberg Boys Choir School. When the choir wasn't traveling - they toured Japan, Australia, Europe and more - they stayed in an enclave tucked in the South African mountains, learning everything from Bach to minimalist opera.
A young musician could hardly find better training. But musically, St Lucia's heart lay elsewhere, and South Africa was full of other rhythms. "My mom says I used to sing along to Michael Jackson," he says - an ordinary anecdote, until he adds, "when I was an infant." As a young teenager, he started to feel that he'd had his fill of classical, and it felt like an epiphany when he discovered the direct emotionality of pop. Eventually, he left the creative "small pond" of South Africa for England, where he spent three years studying music in Liverpool.
St. Lucia's journey ended - as so many journeys do - in New York City, where he started working on the tracks that would ultimately turn into his self titled debut release on Neon Gold. The atmospheric quality of St. Lucia's electronic pop is powerful, with the musician's global travels and history of secret hideaways effortlessly passed onto the audience through his dreamy, shimmering synths.
Neon Gold will release St Lucia's debut album later this year. Formerly a singles-only label that launched releases Passion Pit, Ellie Goulding, The Naked & Famous and helped launch the careers of countless others.

St. Lucia Lyrics
I don't know how you do it
But somehow you always will be there
And there's nothing to it
But somehow you always understand
There's no way to wake up now
Too many times I saw you cry
And no one can make up it
You wait for the sun to make the sky
And no one elevates you, elevates you now
And no one's gonna take you, gonna take you there
All this time, never thought I would see you smile
Know that I and I know that I see you now
But I know I can't walk in
Never go back again
No matter how, tonight I'll never go back, never go back again
And no one elevates you, elevates you now
And no one's gonna take you, gonna take you there
And no one elevates you, elevates you now
And no one's gonna take you, gonna take you there
And no one elevates you, elevates you now
And no one's gonna take you, gonna take you there
And no one elevates you, elevates you now
And no one's gonna take you, gonna take you there
Hold on to your heart
Hold on to your heart
Hold on to your heart

I don't know how you do it
But somehow you always will be there
And there's nothing to it
But somehow you always understand
There's no way to wake up now
Too many times I saw you cry
And no one can make up it
You wait for the sun to make the sky
And no one elevates you, elevates you now
And no one's gonna take you, gonna take you there
All this time, never thought I would see you smile
Know that I and I know that I see you now
But I know I can't walk in
Never go back again
No matter how, tonight I'll never go back, never go back again
You know that I want to get away
And I cannot wait for another day
You know that I want to elevate
Time to pick it up and celebrate

O PES 2016 deve ter a melhor trilha sonora da história da franquia, na época eu fui atrás de rodadas músicas aqui no YouTube. E tô ouvindo de novo em 2021.
