Establishing the mood with a psychedelic, arpeggiated synth, an expansive bassline, and an immersive frequency with luscious vocal textures, ADVIKA opens Come Back To Earth with atmospheric vocals and metaphorical, cosmic constructs. Needless to say, we are in awe.
The opus expands with immersive depth, to take us on an astral journey beyond this reality. We deeply connect with the dreamy vocal design with layers and harmonic nuance.
The composition is refined and demonstrates instrumental mastery, as ADVIKA showcases her range and philosophical nuance fused cohesively with a trip-hop adjacent beat.
We learn that the composition “uses a combination of rich layering of vocal harmonies and light, airy vocals to create the ethereal sounds that emulate the vastness and emptiness of space.”
Speaking further on the release of Come Back To Earth, ADVIKA confesses, “The lyrics describe the deep anguish of gradual separation in a relationship that once held a promise, watching them slowly detach themselves from each other. One holds onto the promise and hopes that the other comes back. And when they do decide to come back, it’s too late. There is nothing left anymore. The strongest bonds can be ephemeral if not cared for and nurtured. The song’s energy builds throughout, going from a mournful call to a realization of the end.”
The Boston-based Electronic Pop Artist continues, “The cover art is an astronaut floating in space with a skull for a face. I made this artwork as the image of someone on earth calling out to the partner who is out in space, hoping with every grain in her being that they can hear her. What she doesn’t know is that they are long gone. The lost astronaut may appear as the lost love, but it is also a metaphor for the relationship as a whole.”
We love what ADVIKA is creating, and have added Come Back To Earth to our New Music Spotlight playlist, whilst we continue to stream ADVIKA‘s wider discography including If Only I Were Cake.
