Kebu - Hope

Still a few copies left of the Limited Twilight Edition of my new album "Urban Dreams":
kebu.bandcamp.com
The regular version of "Urban Dreams" is also available on other music platforms and stores:
zyxdance.lnk.to/UrbanDreams
"Hope" was originally composed for Roland’s product launch event at Abbey Road Studios, where the track was premiered with a live performance. Similar to my earlier releases, the upcoming album - including this track - will consist of a sound universe made only with analog synthesizers and analog drum machines. The synths used on "Hope" are also featured in the music video. In addition to the original version and a radio edit, the single also contains a sparser drum-less version of the song called the “Dream Version”.
"Hope" composed and performed by Kebu / Sebastian Teir
Lights: Sebastian "Baba" Sjöblom
Camera: Mika Knuutila
Audio mastering: Vadim Kulin
Editing and background videos: Sebastian Teir

In my opinion a worthy successor to Jean-Michel Jarre. Hopefully KEBU will keep us happy with its wonderful music and performance for many years to come!

[@alandavidson9086]

Yes 100% worthy. I have seen JMJ live and hope I will see Kebu live at some point.

[@fabriziolandini1630]

@@alandavidson9086 JMJ ne joue pas en solo il à plusieurs musiciens qui l'assiste, Kebu effectue ces performances en solo ... digne successeur de JMJ, Vangelis, Hans zimmer, etc...

[@MTXODIN]

Dieser Sound ist und bleibt unverkennbar, Sebastian Teir ist und bleibt einer der wenigen auf der Welt die ihren musikalischen Gefühle voll und ganz in die Musik bringen! Wenn ich diese Musik 🎶 höre habe ich sofort gute Laune!!! Lg steve

Kebu, you have no idea how much we are waiting for your videos. We are waiting for you and love you and Roland too. (from Russia)🎹

[@paulgrooveside2803]

This will be so good! And timely too, the world needs hope right now. The optimistic happiness of Kebu's music and personality are needed more than ever.

[@MrFlazz99]

It's like christmas when Kebu puts out new music. I didn't even know it was coming but then found it 16mins after the premiere - what luck. Thank you Kebu! One day when the plague is officially gone we might have real live performances to enjoy - well, I can dream....

[@bobgomez9481]

there is no plague... coming soon to a tell-a-vision near you, the truth...

[@AnalogDreamJP8]

That leadsound from 0.41 and on....sends shivers down my spine. Great song!!

Awesome that’s my birthday 48 years old and still playing and partying can’t wait

[@proto2122]

The new lord of the synth

[@entropybentwhistle]

We have to make it official and have Edgar Tangram and Zedd Centauri introduce him at The Necropolis.

[@Muushondje]

Kebu you are the absolute master of Synths. Imho, you are one of the best live players of Synths ever. And this track is so full of power energy. Very uplifting. This should be the new anthem of the Olympics. Armin van Buuren recently met Vangelis at the home of the greek Zeus of Synths. If ever one deserves a audience with him it is you Kebu.

[@damionlee7658]

They say music soothes the savage beast. I had been left in a foul mood by this evening by events that aren't important. What is important is that I sat down and listened to this; and all the issues faded. My mood settled and I am calm, and ready for a good night's sleep. Music has a huge amount of power to influence how we feel and react. Tonight I needed something to relax and calm me, and this beautiful score did just that.

[@madismusic]

Wonderful track! Love the Andromeda sound 😀 Cheers Sebastian!

[@whispereddusk]

Madis, you, Kebu and Gattobus are my favorite electronic musicians. With your music, life is just so much better and enjoyable. Thank you.

[@tosh8398]

Madis, it's time for your new tracks. And for concert somewhere in Poland :D Madis, czas na Twoje nowe kawałki oraz koncert w Polsce :D

Mesmerising Kebu...I love the mountains and this is the track I will listen to when I look over a cloud invert, above the clouds for a million years 🧖🏼

[@alessiogiovagnoli385]

Hiper composer..no more words to describe this guy..his music is poetry in melody..we had jean michelle jarre and moroder..our children have kebu...both luckys..

[@alessiogiovagnoli385]

thanks kebu for your magic and superior sound and to be a very special person..i see it looking at your eyes while your are playng your music.. Its very very difficult choosing your best piece..are all different and all specials..but especially eric'sbrother and deep blue make me emotioned as i was 20 and i went to disco in half italy and half europe..so powerfull that im not able to listen them without dancing even if im 45😄😄 Greetings from Florence❤🔝🎹🎧🎛🎚🎶💯👏

[@thecrazychannelyt]

Come on.. he does great music, but most of his songs are TOO inspired in Jarre's music. I find it nice to listen to, since Jarre's music is a shit lately, so this is like what latest jarre's releases could have been, but unfortunately that makes it hard for newcomers to love his music for the lack of identity. This latest song, Hope, anyways, is really really cool. I love it more than any of his other songs.

[@tricky.pixels]

Such a talent…walking in the footsteps of the great now Kebu…I have listened to this many times and it transports my soul to far away places…thank you for giving us your music.

[@matepolcz]

Can't wait, the intro was beautiful!

[@gordonsoames3323]

We need to hear uplifting music like yours to get us through these difficult times.

[@ioan7670]

[@marcush8868]

We all need some Hope days like this! What a song THX Kebu .

[@kevinroberts7521]

They should use this as the intro at the Olympic games!

[@ExcessiveMusic]

Hell yeah! Some Synth-Citypop :D

[@odan7564]

Kebu is a synthesizer god!

[@Sancld]

Sorry...but...you are forgiving completly. JM Jarre, Moroder, Vince Clarke, Jordan Rudess, Alan Parson, Trevor Horn and from one side Quincy Jones...they knows how to get the best from them...

I dispute that. Jarre has handed over the crown to the new Lord of Synth which now rules supreme!
