Heavy bass-work and sci-fi-style dashes of synth and haunting detail across the outer layers – Anjalts offers an equally uncertain melody and poetic concept throughout this soulful and ambient new single Somewhere in the Sky.
Ultimately tackling the issue of loss, separation and overcoming, the song leads with a creative edge that quickly sets a dark and intriguing mood. The production is particularly unique, fascinating in being so and drawing focus to the voice in an unusual yet effective manner.
The voice has character too, meandering through whispered moments and falsetto instances alike, before resolving for an unexpectedly satisfying and brighter hook.
The hook is a defiant highlight, suddenly this RnB anthem of optimism connects for its Gospel delicacy and uplift, and this makes all the difference in completing the set-up and giving the track a memorable tune and emotional outcry.
In addition, the instrumental drop following the final chorus is quite mighty, dark and industrial, leaning back towards uncertainty in the face of this idea that is to ‘let you go’. A personal struggle exemplified in song, in art. Interestingly crafted.
