Laura Pieri Reclaims the Night with ‘Sea of Tragedy (On The Dancefloor)’

6 days ago | ronrockycoloma.com | Ron Rocky Coloma

Pop artist Laura Pieri doesn’t want to think too much anymore. Not because she’s lacking ideas—she’s got plenty—but because, after years of conceptual songwriting and emotionally heavy projects, she’s ready to feel instead. That shift is at the heart of her latest release, a reimagined remix of her emotionally charged track “Sea of Tragedy,” now dressed in shimmering synths and dancefloor-ready rhythms. “I love that project,” Pieri said of the original version.

The chords came first. Swirling, nostalgic and warm, they wrapped around the Marshall siblings like a familiar dream. Then the lyrics followed—effortless, intuitive and sincere. For Katie and Ben Marshall of the synth-pop duo Paperwhite, “This Feeling” wasn’t just a song title. It was a message from the ether. A sign that despite everything—despite chaos, doubt and darkness—something better is always on the horizon.

When filmmaker William Webb decided to enter the 2025 Public Domain Day Film Remix Contest, he didn’t expect to walk away with an honorable mention.

Jeremy Floyd wasn’t planning to remix public domain footage the day he did. In fact, he barely knew about the contest until it was nearly over. “I ended up cutting this thing together on the last day of the contest and turned it in right under the wire,” Floyd said, describing how his entry for the 2025 Public Domain Day Film Remix Contest came to be. That last-minute effort paid off: his short film, Moving Pictures Aren’t What They Used to Be, earned an Honorable Mention.

When Diego Diaz and Can Sark set out to make a short film, they weren’t aiming to solve the legal intricacies of intellectual property. They wanted to laugh at them. Their film The Wayback Machine received an Honorable Mention in the Live Action category of the Internet Archive’s 2025 Public Domain Day Film Remix Contest. It’s a tongue-in-cheek look at copyright law, digital access and the sometimes mind-bending process of what actually becomes public domain — and when.

There are collections that whisper. And then there’s Noskra’s Fall/Winter 2025-2026 Collection, an offering that doesn’t ask for your attention. It seizes it. Quietly. Without theatrics. Like a stranger who steps onto the train dressed in blackout cargo and silence, yet somehow shifts the gravitational pull of the room. The moment I stepped into this gallery, I felt as if I’d wandered into an art heist orchestrated by monks in sneakers. Garments moved like shadows, soft but deliberate.
Yarin Glam Gets Real With ‘Human,’ an Anthem for Emotional Survival

When Yarin Glam first stepped into the studio to record her latest single “Human,” she wasn’t aiming to craft a perfect pop track. She was trying to survive. “I was dealing with burnout, people-pleasing and trying to hold everything together while falling apart inside,” Glam said. “It’s a reminder to myself and others that being vulnerable doesn’t make you weak. It makes you real.”“Human” opens with heavy emotion—low, brooding synths and vocals that tremble just enough to feel personal.
RAGS AND RICHES Confront Darkness and Truth With Their Latest Track ‘Hush’

The Kentucky-born alt-pop brother duo RAGS AND RICHES have never shied away from vulnerability. But with their new track “Hush,” they go deeper than ever before—into personal betrayal, emotional trauma and the dark underbelly of silence. It’s an uncomfortable song.

Reimagining the Past: Queline Meadows Takes Top Prize at 2025 Remix Contest

It started with a feeling—a quiet, unshakable one. Queline Meadows wasn’t planning to make a sad film. But the deeper she went into her remix of early cinema, lyrics and crumbling text, the more the tone shifted. It became something bittersweet. Melancholic. Honest. “When I was making the film, I found it taking me in a direction that was a little sadder than I had originally planned,” Meadows said in an interview with Entertainment Flair.
