Setting the tone with an emotional strings arrangement and a pulsating, trip-hop adjacent beat with cerebral risers, avOva open Indigo with dimensionality and warmth. The opus expands with atmospheric vocals and introspective prose with philosophical nuance, and needless to say, we are in awe.

We connect with the immersive yet intricate nature of the soundscape, with astral detailing, unique ad libs and an overarching sentiment that reflects the contemplative message of the track. The compositional production is sublime and reminds us of early Portishead, which makes sense considering avOva are also from Bristol!

We learn that Indigo is a collaborative effort with singer Nalarié, who also co-wrote the track and that the song is designed to pay homage to the iconic Bristol sound of the past while introducing fresh, innovative elements.

Indigo stands out as an atmospheric, downtempo track that has the power to evoke a meditative sentiment, allowing us to connect deeply with the universe. The song’s ethereal soundscape, characterized by its layered textures and ambient tones, creates an immersive auditory experience that encourages introspection and tranquility. As the music unfolds, it gently guides the mind into a state of calm, fostering a space where one can detach from the chaos of daily life and enter a realm of inner peace.

The soothing melodies and subtle rhythms of Indigo act as a conduit for meditation, helping us to focus our thoughts and attune to the subtleties of the present moment. This heightened state of awareness can lead to a profound sense of connection with the universe, as the music’s expansive quality mirrors the boundless nature of the cosmos.

We love what avOva and Nalarié are manifesting, and have added Indigo to our New Music Spotlight playlist, as well as our new TRIPPY and TIMELESS playlists, whilst we continue to stream avOva‘s debut single, Can You?.
