The single of Marc Soucy, "That Thing You Said," marked the American musician’s expansion and sophistication of profound emotional expression through the multifaceted framework of sound and imagery. It continues to showcase Soucy's deep understanding of emotion through his work as a cinematic and soul-infused composer, “STIR: Soundscapes Evoking Realities Only Imagined” vision. The track and the video are now available on all international streaming platforms, including YouTube, Apple Music, Spotify, and Amazon Music. Marc takes listeners through a transformative experience encapsulated by tenderness, intimacy, connection, and vulnerability.
The beginning notes of that song transport the listeners to a dreamy atmosphere, enveloping them to feel as though they're drifting through a nostalgia. The piece is characterized by the gentle unfolding of soft piano lines accompanied by sultry electronic textures and romantic undertones arranged in a lilting and soul-infused manner. Soucy's signature style is composing at a cinematic scope with neoclassic elegance, striking the sweet spot between chambré and classical. His mastery lies in every pause, every instrument, every flourish being orchestrated toward a single objective. Through a delicate balance of layering complexity, detail, and simplicity, he paints a clarity of intricate feeling.
The video enriched the overarching concepts of the song, which are connection and emotional depth. It combines those powerful, sweet, and sorrowful moments of love when two people find each other through the right words at just the right moment. It captures the joyful celebration that comes with unspoken understanding between people, while effortlessly synchronized to the music’s subtle rise and fall. This project is all about intimacy, and the video captures the strength of human shared experience without any illusions. What we have here is not simply a music video, but instead a visual poem that moves through feelings which words often fail to describe.
As it seems, neither have the critics. RGM (Reyt Good Magazine) argued the track is magical and dreamy romantic strings, which have the qualities of “floating through a dream you don’t want to wake up from.” On the other hand, Hyperspace’s Emanuele Rosi praised the track for its dreamy feel, calling attention to the “Marc Soucy signature touch” of electronic depth, making sure to point out the playful yet tangible aspects of the track. Alexander Asiedu of Music and Entertainers appreciated the emotional turmoil and intellect in the composition by Soucy, while Good Music Radar called him a composer who “creates presence like no other,” referring to the way he intertwined emotional atmosphere with beautiful instrumental sparks throughout.
Soucy’s life is as fascinating as the musical works he creates. His eclectic taste in music, which includes progressive rock, electronic, and jazz, is reflected in each composition he pens. Soucy's musical journey commenced in his early childhood when he took piano lessons. Moreover, he dedicated himself professionally to music production in Boston from 1997 to 2011. While the world has only recently had access to his original pieces, the wait proved worthwhile. "That Thing You Said," released as part of the "STIR" series, exemplifies the mark the project has made since the original debut, "Tashkent Club Fire." This milestone shows the progress made in winning hearts and imaginations.
As the world becomes heavier with noise, Marc Soucy makes calmness an oasis of feeling and finesse. “That Thing You Said” is not only a track, but an archetypal emotion bound in cinematic splendor and sonic gentleness. It prompts listeners to stop, think, and experience the intensely human aspect of feeling. While his reputation grows alongside the reach of his music across many global platforms, one picture is becoming clearer: He is not composing songs; he is sculpting emotional landscapes. And with every new release, we get the chance to walk through them.
