FEATURED RELEASE
Our featured single, ‘Second Flame’ by A Photo In The Dark, is out now and available to stream on all major streaming platforms! The release consists of three tracks and lasts around twelve minutes.
‘Flair’ lasts three minutes and forty seconds and sits at 118bpm. The track commences with a thirty-one second introduction that combines subtle storm samples with ambient instrumentation to set the melodic tone. The beat kicks in at the 0:32 mark; driving the rhythmic intensity of the overall instrumental flow. The effected vocalisation adds to the catchy vibe of the melodic progression. The spacey sound formed by the amalgamated/panned synth layers creates a captivating auditory experience for the listener.
‘Smart Thoughts’ lasts four minutes and twelve seconds and sits at 85bpm. The track begins with a twenty-three second opening section that features creatively panned instrumental layering to form an immersive sound. The smooth percussion kicks in at the 0:24 mark and lifts the intensity of the instrumentation as additional layers are gradually filtered into the mix. An impressive wind instrumental solo provides the perfect amount of dynamic diversity to keep this track engaging from start to finish.
‘Work Flow Balance’ lasts three minutes and fifty-two seconds and sits at 85bpm. The track commences with a twenty-one second introduction that initially begins with an effected synth progression that is met by a bass tone at the 0:11 mark; creating a crescendo that leads into the main beat. The addition of a spoken word sample adds a creative flare to the original compositional arrangement without taking away from the trance like vibe. With a complete melodic shift at 2:27, this track will have you lost in it’s flow from start to finish.
