Bird aka Janie Price wrote a short film called Wider Than the Sky for which she also composed the soundtrack. And this year the album for that soundtrack released including the single “The Tides.” Now a new radio edit mix of the song is available with its lushly orchestral sound preserved like an even more deeply atmospheric downtempo track. Price’s emotionally wide-ranging vocals are paired well with transporting string arrangements for an effect like a Michael Jarre score for a David Lean film. Most impressive, though, is how Price matches and complements the orchestral sounds in tone and emotional resonance for a musical synthesis not heard often enough in pop music. Listen to “The Tides” on Spotify and follow Bird at the links below.
