Hugh’s “Sense To You ft. Bonjay” feels like rainy day either traveling some distance by train or looking out the window into the overcast evening contemplating what could be and what could have been with while nursing a melancholic loneliness. The lush synthscapes hang close and flow with a shifting opacity to carry you adrift with the wash of complex emotions flavored with a sense of muted yearning. The highly processed vocals late in the song are like the voice of the room around you saying what is oft wondered if walls could speak the un-mediated truth. The small sonic details really anchor the hazy melody like lights on the side of roads in the distance and lend to a sense of aural depth and not layers so much as a complete musical environment through which the listener moves along with song’s narrators. Listen below and give the band’s links a visit to further explore its beautifully moody music.
