- Description
„Come on. Awake. Watch me absorbing the bass.
Cabriolet. Purple haze. Inhale.“Numb! Dead on the inside. Body parts disconnected like pieces of a puzzle, scattered. The tension between the unencumbered, limitless freedom offered by the digital domain and a myriad limitations placed on the body. AWAKE from avant-pop outfit Eutropic, transposes the idea of the zombie to our current state as a society. It also offers a glimpse into what it would feel like to come back to life, fully! A pessimist might call it an escapist fantasy or just wishful thinking, a mere daydream. An optimist might see it as a spell, a call to arms or a beautiful sonic fiction to live through vicariously. Whatever your predisposition might be, the fact that the song feels like a wild reawakening, a resuscitation, a full reset – is indisputable! In fact, it’s hardwired into the song’s relentless, tight, throbbing groove, the vitality of the chunky bass and the effervescent keys and guitars. Listening to is is like being transported from a murky, life-less netherworld into the pulsating, chromatic vitality of life at large.
