Synth Single Review: “Before the Dawn” by sea of signs & timesloth

by Karl Magi

sea of signs & timesloth’s “Before the Dawn” carries me on a journey through thought and spaced-out ease. The track starts as warming tones carry a melody that dreams of timeless peace while the background flows outward with solar wind. Rebounding underpinnings add form while crisp drums cut in and ringing tones levitate with cosmic relaxation.

The lead synth glimmers like dawn barely breaking on the world’s edge while breathy notes float like stars in the vastness of the night sky. Piano-like tones drift with galactic calm, imbuing me with meditative thoughtfulness while the background floats like planets through the heavens. A string-like synth twinkles with stellar luminosity before the cleanly pulsing drumbeat shapes the music’s rhythmic heart.

Distant sounds hover like galaxies while a shifting synth cries out with caressing tenderness, and elevated notes glow like sunrise’s first golden light while the rhythmic underlayer glides on. Spacy sounds wander into openness before the track breathes back into silence.
