Antichords is a cross-electro duo formed in ROME in 2014 by FEDERICA ZAMMARCHI (singer and songwriter) and DAVIDE ALIVERNINI (musician and producer).
Their first album, WALLs, is a journey into electric sounds mixed with jazz, techno, ballads and experimental sounds.
In 2020 they released their new single, FIREFLY, a song that brings the listener into a calm and cheering world, created by choosing an essential sound and beat, but with a strong vocal identity. The song is available on all digital stores and streaming services.

The title of the single, "Firefly" seems to symbolize something that is positive. According to the sun signs website, "In addition to reminding of us of the importance of our internal character, the light from fireflies appropriately represents hope, guidance, inspiration, and awakening. They implore us to listen to our hearts and let them lead the way toward truth and light". Therefore, it is one of the reasons why the song brings a listener to a calm and cheering world and it's probably why the single is titled, "Firefly".
There are various examples in the music video which symbolize positivity. There are different scenes such as candlelight, light bulb, and fireflies, only to mention a few. All of these different pictures make the music video intriguing. Moreover, since the genre of the music is reverse engineering of music styles probably means that there is a mixture of beats all in one. The sound and the visual imagery of the music video itself seem to be unique. Lastly, what makes the music video interesting is that there seems to be a reverse of fireworks.
The song lyrics itself also bring out the calm and cheering world. This is shown when it said :
"Bring me light (Sail across the moonlight)
Hold me Firefly (Following my lighthouse)
Bring me light (Whisper in the shadows)
Hold me Firefly"
The way I see it, the lyrics seem to just describe someone's feelings. A feeling where one just wants to be happy and have something positive happening in their life.
In a nutshell, Antichords seems to be unique in the sense that their music is a reverse engineering of music styles. Moreover, the music video itself was also unique and had that calm atmosphere effect. The song was probably released to give everyone a sense of peace, calm and cheering mood.
