Wellside's “Soaring” trembles and a rising wind lifts the music with a theme that brings sensations of open air and free flight to life before the underlying bass creates lush support and a fresh synth breathes out. Percussion snaps into a shaping pattern as expansive tones lift me up, my heart feeling light and airy as a piano sings with release and relief.
The drumbeat is steady as the main melody glides on gilded wings, soaring up through the clouds. notes flash with flickering sunlight as the gentle arpeggios circle and chords climb before an open voice synth exhales a theme that produces surrounding peace while metallic sounds shine like solar light in a cerulean sky.
Percussion drops away as extended chords shift and the elevated synth transmits the melody, carrying out above the world, free and moving past all of the complexities that plague us before the music slips easily to a close.
