Setting the tone with a cerebral synth, shooting risers and a dimensional bassline, Alessia De Gasperis opens Evil Eye with atmsoperhic vocals and an immersive, trip-hop energy. The opus expands with a divine vocal performance, and introspective lyrical depth as Alessia takes us on a transcendental, yet thought provoking journey.
We appreciate the authentic nature that Alessia shares with her message, and the overarching, conscious notion of the track. For reference, the Evil Eye is a supernatural belief in a curse brought about by a malevolent glare, usually inspired by envy. The belief in the evil eye among humans has existed since prehistory, and amulets to protect against it have been found dating to about 5,000 years ago. It is estimated that around 40% of the world’s population believes in the evil eye.
We deeply connect with how Alessia De Gasperis brings this ancestral concept to life for a new generation. Her vocal timbre is sublime and showcases a versatile range with a high emotional quotient. Needless to say, we are in awe.
The concept of freeing oneself from the clutches of toxic love is abundant with Evil Eye. Beyond its intriguing title, the song offers more than just a subversive and moody tune; it serves as a potent shield against negative energies.
Evil Eye helps us manifest protection and empowerment through its sonic design and message. The song’s lyrics and melody act as a sonic barrier, deflecting negativity and fostering a sense of inner strength and resilience. By immersing ourselves in the song’s empowering essence, we can cultivate a mindset of positivity and self-assurance, warding off any ill intentions or harmful influences that may come our way.
If this wasn’t enough to satiate us, Evil Eye also comes with a cinematic, film noir-esque music video that sees the rising star share her message amidst iconic cityscapes. We love what Alessia De Gasperis is creating, and have added Evil Eye to our New Music Spotlight playlist and our new TRIPPY playlist, whilst we continue to stream Alessia De Gasperis‘s wider discography, including When You Love Someone, and Life’s A Bitch, and anticipate future releases from the talented emerging artist.
