Song REviews
Working its magic most notably at high volumes, the decidedly hypnotic and passionately crafted The Ocean Is Made Of Drops progresses through a fairly perfect five-minute life-span in a manner that feels consistently soothing yet unpredictable all at once. While there are fragments of familiar EDM and pop production, there are also dashes of distorted electric guitar, freestyle-like melodies, heavy hits of rhythm and lashings of reverb.
There’s a notably warped energy to many of the layers, yet it works – professionalism keeps things connecting, interesting yet engaging, and for all of these reasons this is something of an addictive new sound and style; and a rather stunning composition all in all.
Recognisable, and mesmerising in the way that all great escapism should be. An impressively alternative hit of creative freedom.
The title “Beyond Words” pulls the listener into seemingly weightless spaces that are constructed through sound and groove.
Gentle color and motif changes, the integration of real and digital sounds, some of which fan out and alternate, as well as some rhythm and groove changes keep the listener’s ears subliminally attentive, while the consciousness can still drop. In line with the title, the voice is mainly used as a sound experience instrumentally and in a line-guiding manner – no words are needed, because the weightless gliding feeling is conveyed entirely or perhaps precisely by the lack of any text.

“The drop was such an attractive and catchy electronic tune tinted with haunting synth. The mellow vocals mixed in with the Pop tempo makes the track incredibly hard to forget.”
