Drawing us in with a dimensional soundscape with astral textures and atmospheric vocals, HELN opens Written In Our Bones with poetic prowess as she shares the lyrics, “Alone in the empty room, my shadow reaches out to you, still feel you, feel your presence near, it lingers…”
The opus expands with a high emotional quotient, trippy percussion elements, bold piano chords and psychedelic nuances in the production to unveil a dynamic and dreamy universe filled with metaphorical depth and relatable concepts.
We appreciate the originality of the sound design and the cohesive tapestry of sound that manifests. In essence, the song is about longing. HELN‘s heart aches and keeps pulling her back in. The connection with her muse feels written into who they are – it feels fated.
It’s also about intense love, and how HELN’s and the subject of her song’s hearts collide like destiny. The other person’s touch and voice consume her, and the passion feels fiery and endless. We love how HELN brings this message to life – it is full of authenticity and a tangible energy that many of us have experienced. The rising artist confesses, “This song is really about longing and that feeling that two people are meant to be together, even if timing or circumstances make it complicated.”
We learn that the recording process took place at Dr. Ford’s studio, and there is certainly a cinematic allure to the track. We could imagine it in a show like Euphoria on HBO, or perhaps the upcoming reboot of Buffy The Vampire Slayer.
On her artistry, HELN humbly adds, “I’m still finding my voice and my sound, but I’m learning to enjoy the process and have fun with it along the way.” Needless to say, we are in awe, and have added Written In Our Bones to our New Music Spotlight playlist, and our TIMELESS playlist, whilst we stream HELN‘s debut single, You Caught My Eye, and anticipate future releases from the talented emerging artist.
