Aster Rhys released “Ocean Deep” and it's an incredible vocal and musical performance.
The sounds of the ocean open this song and is the foreshadow to the incredible depths this song goes to. With a bluesy, sea-shanty ambiance the song is instantly captivating.
Hailing from New Haven, CT we were so impressed with this that we are surprised this is the first time we have been exposed to this artist.
A powerful folk/singer-songwriter known and applauded for her emotionally resonant music delivers a Broadway-quality performance that is stunningly impressive. When we heard the lyrics, “With you there is no going baaaaaaack”, we knew this artist was ready to soar to new heights. The control and delivery are exemplary and create an essence of a hypnotic state that the listener can only focus on and enjoy this spectacular demonstration.
The singing alone would be amazing, but Rhys didn’t just give us that. Combining the emotions and experiences of her own life, she details a story that makes one reflect on our own relationships. By offering a raw and introspective look at the feelings of lost love and the uncertainty that follows we now have a script to follow along with this deep expression of how life is both the familiar past and the uncharted future. How powerful a statement for the listener to absorb. Aster Rhys's lyrics poignantly express the sentiment of having once been intimately close to someone, only to find that, over time, they have become distant strangers. Regardless of the type of relationship, this song will connect with those emerging from a toxic relationship.
The highs and falsettos brought to your ears and seamlessly folded into this upbeat track are also supported by an incredibly performed musical arrangement. This is a very contemporary and extremely unique performance that will gain the attention of industry professionals.
Finally, the engineering team committed to and delivered a beautiful production. With crystal clear sound and instruments that each hold their own place in the song you can easily enjoy each one independently or as one song. It’s a wonderful and creative way to deliver such a deep message of life's tribulations and it obviously came from a very deep place. How appropriately named is the wonderful creation, "Ocean Deep".
We definitely suggest you take the time to check out this artist's profile to hear this tremendous creation. Definitely playlist stream and share Aster Rhys and “Ocean Deep”
