After a three-year hiatus, Chicago’s own multi-hyphenate Ro Moore returns with Neon Brown, a 9-track project that feels like a late-night drive through the city—moody, introspective, and effortlessly cool. Featuring his highly anticipated single “ Pick Up the Phone,” this release solidifies Ro Moore’s place as a visionary producer, engineer, and artist.
Neon Brown
The EP, released this past Friday, explores themes of vulnerability and growth, weaving them through a mix of sultry melodies, hypnotic beats, and poignant lyricism. Whether you’re soaking in the lush production of “True Lies,” reflecting on regret in “Apologize,” or lost in the cinematic grandeur of “Designer Pain,” Neon Brown delivers a cohesive soundscape that feels both intimate and expansive. Anchored by the standout track “Pick Up the Phone,” Ro sets the tone for the project with its yearning vocals and atmospheric production. Collaborations with talents like Ausar on “Designer Pain” and Josi Green on “Let Go” add dynamic textures to the EP, while Ro’s solo moments, such as “Leaves” and “Finding the Words,” showcase his ability to bare his soul through music.
Each track is meticulously crafted, with contributions from a stellar lineup of producers including D Noel, Wildlife Willy, and Tay Agony, among others. Ro’s own production expertise shines throughout, giving Neon Brown a sound that’s unmistakably his. Ro Moore has always had the ability to make music that feels like an experience, and Neon Brown is no different. Whether you’re on a solo ride or vibing with friends, this project promises to hit you in all the right places.
