The track is the latest in a steady stream of recent releases from the artist
Having grown known for a more gruff and hard-hitting indie rock sound, singer and multi-instrumentalist Ben Aubergine has reverted to a softer and more acoustic sound for his latest single ‘Farewell’, a track that was originally composed in 1996 for acoustic guitar and cello.
This stylistic choice makes for a wonderfully immersive and authentic feeling listening experience, with the more nuanced and soft nature of the sound giving it a rawness and an emotional edge that leaves a resonating impression on you as a listener. The track explores the complexities of relationships and the sense of catharsis and liberation that can come from breaking up as well as the hardships, and a sound that stays true to the original ideas for the sound while incorporating carefully updated instrumentation and production ensures that these feelings and emotions weren’t lost somewhere along the way.
