ALI Unveils Dazzling New Hit “Trick Of The Light”
Pop lovers, get ready to be swept off your feet! Rising star ALI is back with her newest single, “Trick Of The Light” and it’s an absolute gem. This track dives deep into the realms of perception and self-discovery.
After captivating us with hits like “When the Summer’s Back“, “Hourglass” and “Lonely”, ALI returns with “Trick Of The Light” a piece that’s both haunting and beautiful. It’s a theatrical tale that mirrors her own life story—leaving her cozy hometown in Spain, to chase her dreams in the bustling streets of London. This song is a sneak peek into her much-anticipated debut album, dropping later this year.
“Trick Of The Light” reminds us all that things aren’t always what they seem. It explores the tension between the image we project and the battles we fight within.
But there’s more! This track also captures ALI’s fearless spirit. It’s about standing tall against doubts and expectations, and the fear of failure that comes with daring to dream big.
Once again teaming up with her go-to producer, Yuriy Salud, ALI has crafted a pop anthem that’s bursting with raw emotion. “Trick Of The Light” features ethereal background vocals and harmonies that complement the maturity and emotional depth of her voice. The result? A song with soaring melodies and evocative lyrics that will take you on a rollercoaster of feelings.
Etherdene’s ‘Forsaker’ is a revelation in both sound and sentiment. The track marks a new chapter in her career, blending the vulnerability of heartbreak with the resilience of moving on, all wrapped in an electrifying package of synth-pop and indie-pop. The result is a song that is both deeply personal and universally relatable, a cathartic journey that encourages listeners to let go and rise above their challenges.
At the heart of ‘Forsaker’ is Etherdene’s exploration of emotional struggle and the painful yet liberating act of letting go. Drawing from her own experiences with the end of a professional partnership, Etherdene’s lyrics are a raw and powerful expression of inner conflict. The line, “Brand new member in the club of quitters, the uniform compliments my eyes,” encapsulates the complex emotions of giving up, flipping the narrative on its head to reveal the strength in choosing to walk away.
‘Forsaker’ is a triumph. Etherdene’s decision to incorporate synth bass arps brings an air of 80s nostalgia while keeping the track fresh and forward-thinking. The electric guitar work from Cory Clark adds a layer of dynamism to the song, complementing its mood perfectly. However, it’s the drums – played by Warren van Wyk – that truly elevate the track, infusing it with energy and warmth that feels almost magical.
What sets ‘Forsaker’ apart is its empowering message. Etherdene isn’t merely recounting a painful experience; she’s showing us the strength that comes from letting go of something that no longer serves you. It’s a message of courage and self-love, encouraging listeners to prioritize their emotional well-being over the fear of walking away from something that seems promising but ultimately isn’t right.
‘Forsaker’ is yet another example of Etherdene’s impressive versatility as an artist. From her early days in the Afrikaans band Kaktus to her current solo career, she has continually pushed the boundaries of what indie-pop can be. With ‘Forsaker’, she’s taken an emotional experience and turned it into a musical triumph that’s as empowering as it is catchy. This track is bound to resonate with anyone who’s ever had to make the difficult decision to walk away – and Etherdene’s ability to capture that moment in song is nothing short of remarkable.
