Introduced by a majestic and ethereal leftfield soundscape, ‘Our Song’ reveals itself as a powerful and eclectic electro-pop anthem. Guided by the malleable and evocative vocals of Lithuanian songstress Sophro, the record flourishes slowly, going from soothing, minimal tones to more uplifting, bright and kaleidoscopic atmospheric textures. A myriad of vocal harmonies help to create an intense, transformative and dreamy ending, taking the listener into introspective territories and personal reflection.
It’s magical, really. Sophro really manages to build a luscious sonic panorama, the perfect environment for her cathartic and meaningful lyricism. Based in Manchester, the talented creative has been slowly building a multi-colour artistry that feels modern and genre-bending, yet still quite familiar.
Speaking about the record, Sophro explains: “Our Song’ is like a hymn to my friends. When I remember those years, trying to get out of a dark void, I often wonder how long it would have taken me to do it if not for those friends/family talking pure honesty to me, holding my hand, kicking my butt and giving me a hug.” A crucial, contemporary theme that we are confident will connect with a large audience out there.
