Sun Affair ft Rohan Iyer – Sun Affair (2021)

There are days when the sun shines and the warmth to you telling you to put aside those pesky responsibilities and just enjoy an afternoon in the sun. These moments have been captures and bottled into the retro yet modern sounds of Sun Affair’s self-titled debut single ‘Sun Affair’. A true summer song, it has you heading out to your favourite spot to end the summer sun with friends and a nice cold drink.

A sort of theme song to this new musical project by Wesley Stormer, it brings the style of the 1970s to the modern world. Using a sound that would not be out of place in the 70s, he melodies that slot into place in the 2020s. Drawing on his love for 70s music and wrapping it around his classical training, he has you excited for the project’s debut EP First Sign of Light.



The retro vibes vibrate through the soundscape of ‘Sun Affair’ from the first guitar note. There is such an easy flow to the melody that brings you to a soulful warmth. It is a very irresistible movement that draws you into the journey to your favourite spot to enjoy the sun. The soft lapping of tones brings the laziness of warm skin and chilled vibes to your brain. While the melody draws you to enjoy the summer sun, you are going to sway to the music because there is no other option. The rich decadence of the music drips over your skin and there is no escape from it.

The lyrics provided by Rohan Iyer are soulful and seductive as they crook a finger at you and beckon you into the summer sun. His voice has a touch of retro-soul that swirls into your veins and meets a more contemporary edge. There is something timeless about his performance that lets you know people would have loved it in the past, will love it right now and fall in love with it in the future. This timeless flow is enhanced by the music that tops everything off for a relaxing summer anthem.

Sun Affair uses a timeless soulful sound to beckon you into the warm summer sun for an afternoon of relaxation and fun in ‘Sun Affair’. The self-titled track draws on retro tones but mixing them with something undeniably modern to create a sound that will last through the ages. Iyer’s vocals enhance the seductive pull of the summer sun while relaxing your muscles and freeing your senses.
