This is deliciously moody and thoughtful off the bat. So downtempo that it really has you hanging on whatever could be coming next. Choice of voicings and patches here is genuinely gorgeous - the leads are pleasant to listen to but almost sombre in their delivery. The piano playing is lovely and really puts a ton of emphasis on playing around the chords. Hints of sound design and drones extending out in the background to ground the track and provide some additional ear candy.
This was great and thoroughly enjoyable to listen to. Thematic execution here is on point, leaning unapologetically into the concept of desire for freedom instead of freedom itself. It is wonderfully pensive and moving in a lot of ways. I'd love to hear more in this style. Great work!
