Montreal-based vocalist and producer Rico 56 returns to NIGHTMODE with his captivating new single, Your Ghost. This deep house track encapsulates the chilling emotions of love slipping away, featuring Rico’s mesmerizing vocal style paired with a minimal yet atmospheric production that delves into the darker realms of the genre.
As the alter-ego of twofaced., Rico 56 embraces a moody aesthetic with Your Ghost, intertwining his signature crooning with stuttering vocal edits set over a deeply immersive groove. The song reflects the turmoil of uncertain love, where emotions never seem to align. The stirring vocal sample becomes a haunting reminder of faded affection, akin to a ghost that lingers in memory.
Rico explains, “Your Ghost was born from a period of creative exhaustion. I stepped back to find new inspiration and sought to break out of my usual style, creating something that felt different yet deeply rooted in my melancholic sound. The song tells a story of uncertain love, where feelings are constantly shifting. ‘The Ghost’ represents love that feels lost, but one look at that person can freeze time, like seeing a ghost.”
Rico 56 made his debut on NIGHTMODE with Falling For You, further solidifying his presence in the electronic music scene with the two-part release Something Real / Strangers, which garnered support from platforms such as House Nation, EDM Sessions, and The Music Essentials. His work has caught the attention of notable DJs, including Vintage Culture, Tiësto, and Nicky Romero, marking him as a rising star in the global dance community.
Reflecting on the track, Rico shares, “Your Ghost is a dark, twisty, melancholic take on lost love, the feeling of what once was, and what could’ve been. With hard-hitting yet calming synth work, it expresses everything I couldn’t say while living in my own head.”
Your Ghost is now available on all streaming platforms via NIGHTMODE, inviting listeners into the haunting exploration of love and loss.
