With a mellow bassline, airy electro layers, and percussion flirting with tropical funk, Ryan Bena sweeps us into a sensual whirlwind with “Summer”, a fiery ode to summer love that breaks all the rules. Between golden beaches, bodies in search of each other, and spontaneous getaways to the other side of the world, the Ecuadorian artist delivers a song that boldly celebrates the present moment. “I feel like this summer is out of control”, he sings, swept up in a wave of desire and freedom. As for the music video, it’s truly impressive: every scene was imagined by Ryan Bena and then brought to life using generative AI (#RunwayGen4 and #GoogleVeo3). Sun, connection, heat… it’s all there. But make no mistake: behind these groundbreaking visuals is a very human mind. And an artist who turns his ideas into vibrant visual emotions. This is the first piece of the cinematic universe “Ryan Universe”, already promising an extraordinary journey. Presented by Slash Music, this video marks a true turning point.
