This unique blend results in a tantalizing sonic journey that whispers secrets from beyond our earthly realm.
The Magical Journey of ‘Only The Light Remained’
The track “Only The Light Remained” is an excellent representation of this blend. Its slightly out-of-tune acoustic piano hauntingly sounds out a heartbreaking ballad about the universal transcendence of light. Coupled with breathing reverse effects, the song creates a magical and otherworldly atmosphere that leaves listeners entranced.
Seamlessly Weaving Genres Together

Impeccable Vocals and Potent Lyrics
The lead vocals, powerful, sometimes torn, underpin the lyrical content. They spread the words “So let it shine, let it shine, again!” reverberating the song’s ethos of positivity and light. However, a slightly more integrated mix could have bolstered the song’s magical and mystical effect, particularly in the chorus.
