Music Crowns writes about SYNTHONIE!
My first official music review – and from the UK, no less!
Hello everyone !!!
Today is one of those days where I don’t know whether to cheer, dance, or just float.
Just now, my first ever official and professional music review has been published on the front page of https://musiccrowns.org – one of the most respected independent music platforms in the UK, with a massive global reach.
📰 Here’s the direct link to the article: ➡️ @ musiccrowns.org
The review was written by Boulent Mustafa, one of the most renowned music journalists in the UK – and honestly… I’m just completely… speechless!!
I need a moment to take this in…
🔥 So, what does this mean for me?
For over three years I’ve been fighting to make my dream come true:
To finally live and work in the UK as a sci-fi & gaming musician, and as an innovator in music tech.
I’ve performed at conventions, led workshops, composed music for UK-based projects, worked with the Caritas youth programs, connected with tech firms – and this year, I finally applied for the Global Talent Visa.
In T minus 13 days, the decision will be made!
But now, the very same Music Crowns, who already issued the crucial final recommendation letter for my visa…
has also published a professional music review about my SYNTHONIE project.
That’s not just amazing – it’s synthonic!
🙏 Thank you Sam Gilbert & Boulent Mustafa
Behind all of this stands Sam Gilbert, the founder of Music Crowns – who is currently fighting cancer, yet still found the strength and heart to support my project. And of course, Boulent, who wrote this review with such insight, care, and musical instinct.
You two have launched me into another orbit today!
Thank you.
Truly.
Thank you!
đź’› What comes next?
- This week I’ll be reaching out to everyone. - Literally E V E R Y O N E !!!
- Next week, I’ll tell the full story – about Sam, about Music Crowns, and the amazing people behind the scenes.
But for today, all I can say is: The dream – it’s turning into reality. Oh Britannia!!!
🛸 Talk soon – and thank you all for being on this journey with me.
Yours truly,
Chris (SYNTHONIE)
