An Atmospheric and Lush Single from Anzwart
A vast new electronic release from Anzwart delivers a unique breed of emotional pole that comes from the textures and tones, along with melodic soundscapes that are delivered throughout this song, and it all comes together with such a hugely cinematic backbone and element of hearing nostalgia that hits when listening.
There's something about this song that strikes me differently. It makes me feel like I've missed something. This song itself is like looking back at memories of your own life and reflecting on choices both good and bad, memories, both good and bad, and emotions that cover all of those choices.
That is part of the beauty of songs like this. They trigger memories when you listen to them. The song sets this immense mood and takes you on a journey, but it's your mind that decides where to go from there.
The song is filled with ethereal, spacious synth pads that flow through the ether of the song and pull you alongside them, so you can drift and swim through everything you hear.
There's also an edgy or sort of buzzing synth that's more upfront; this also gives you a deeper set of bass notes and melodies, and together they start creating this atmosphere.
As the song unfolds, vocals are evident in the far background. They're used like instruments along with the synths, keys, pads, and soon, a beat starts coming in.
The beat of this track is beautiful because it's not overwhelming, but instead flows with the energy of the song itself.
The beat is almost like a '90s pop kind of beat, mixed with break, and it gives the song a slight drive, but again, nothing overpowering, because everything about this track is very attentive. It is all balanced almost precisely so that it becomes one being.
I love that about this. Before you know it, you are swallowed up by everything that you're hearing. It is a combination of both uplifting, spirited, and also this looming darkness in its underbelly.
You can hear elements of all the different sides of emotion that come with living a full life.
Listening to this track is sort of intense if you take it that way. For me, my mind was completely set free, and I found it so enticing to dive into it and sort of let it swim around in the air that surrounded me.
Beautiful sets of tones and textures fill the space, and you just get washed away with everything.
This is the kind of song you can tell came from some genuine place. It's a song with meaning, purpose, and something to say. There's a message that is supposed to come across, but for each listener, that message may be a little different.
The track swells and sways with intensity that comes in waves, as beats drift away and come back.
There's also something strangely angelic about it. All the synths and pads, vocals, and everything else involved just layer on top of each other and create such a robust soundscape for you to soak in.
Listening to this song is quite a beautiful experience and can certainly serve as an escape. It pulls you away from wherever you are and whatever you're doing and brings you to a different headspace altogether.
The accompanying video that comes along with this track pushes a lot of the sentiments I brought up even further.
This is mainly because the video is composed of old footage, seemingly from maybe the early to mid-80s.
The whole thing is footage from a wedding, some shots being augmented slightly, others pure, but it all works amazingly for the song.
It is indeed a reflection on somebody's life. It's about people, being alive, and everything that goes along with it.
I think the video is absolutely perfect, because it touches that cornerstone of where I think the song came from.
It is very intriguing to watch footage like this, especially with such an ambient set of sounds and tones that come along with that. Simply because again, it builds an intense mood and draws you in even further.
I think this was very well thought out. Having said that, it also feels incredibly freeing. Like I mentioned, your mind just sort of branches off if you just listen to the song itself.
It's different when you watch the video. You sort of follow along with what's going on during this wedding, edited in with other clips from people's lives in history.
I'm not sure if it's anyone notable to the general public, but it seems personal.
It was all quite a beautiful experience to take in, and I think that one of the best ways for you to listen to the song for the first time is to watch that video.
However you listen to the song, I do highly suggest listening with headphones on. As I said, this is a song with tons of layers, and you really can get engulfed by it. One of the best ways to experience that is through headphones, so you can pick up on all of these textures that are going on.
I definitely suggest jumping into this one and taking on an experience like this.
So, dive in, and you'll see and hear exactly what I'm talking about.
Let's see how the song affects you.
