“No Grand Gesture,” the concluding track to Guava’s 2023 dream pop album Out of Nowhere, is like the peaceful exit out of an album that was like a journey through emotional exploration of relationships and aspirations. Rather than the more pop mixed with deep house format of the songwriting of the rest of the album, this song utilizes the softly incandescent tonality of the record to craft an ambient cloak of soothing drones that blend and roil together and fade into abstract environmental sounds like a long drive through some light fog at the end of night of new experiences and adventure to the tranquility of a home outside the active energy of a city center. It’s an appropriately meditative end to an uncommonly thoughtful album and a track that though instrumental and ultra chill lingers with you.
