StarAV - Lava Lamp [Review]

Artist based from Australia StarAV released a new track called “Lava Lamp”. The song’s genre can be categorized as Ambient Pop and Indie Electronic. The instrument used to complete the music are Vocals, Piano, Synths, Steel Tongue Drum, and Noise. The song is Self-produced, with vocal recording & mixing at Hosea Creative. The song’s music and vocal are too good. The instrumental gives a vibe of the outside world and the vocal creates an environment that blends in with the music and creates an ear soothing experience.

Ambient pop is a musical genre that developed in the 1980s as an extension of the dream-pop movement. It merges structures that are common to conventional pop music with “electronic textures and atmospheres that mirror the hypnotic, meditative qualities of ambient music.” The song also has a touch of indie electronic.

If we to the lyrics section of the song, the song is not too big but with the short lyrics it bears a strong meaning and meaningful lyrics are very important. The song is a romantic song and in the first section of the lyrics, he says that sometimes everyone should let go of everything and feel free. And free means there will be mental pressure also.

“Sometimes you have to let go

To free-fall away

I won’t judge you anymore

‘Cause sometimes I needed to

Free fall far away

Out of sight, out of mind”

After that section, it holds the main meaning of the song where he is saying that he is tired and he can’t bear the loss of the loved one. He wishes to be dead cause he doesn’t have the one he loves. He doesn’t want to live alone and tells her not to leave him alone. But life is cruel everyone has to go and he wishes to meet the person he loves in another life.

“I’m so tired

Where can I lay my head?

I’ll just close my eyes

Hope I wake up dead

Don’t want to live without you

Don’t leave me out here to die”

“The End is an EP released on the last day of 2021. The carefully curated cover songs, tie into the idea of self-regulation through music. Particularly the experiences of loss and isolation, which are widely universal experiences; the EP is a tribute to how music can help you feel less alone through hard times”.-StarAV
