The new single and video from the singer-songwriter and composer showcases the powerful appeal of her ethereal and soothing nature
On her intoxicating and ethereal new single and video ‘Ocean of You’, Evelí Ray continues to curate a sound and appeal that feels unlike anything that you’ve heard before, seamlessly melding Eastern and Western sounds to create something that feels effortlessly powerful and transfixing, buoyed even further by the stunning composure and allure of the artist’s captivating vocals.
Instruments like duduk, tabla and oud provide the sound with a mystical and ethereal sound that washes over you in an all-encompassing and effortless fashion, creating a cinematic and picturesque feel that takes a hold of you and transports you onto this oceanic journey with the artist. Themes like love and infatuation interweave with this compelling imagery, making for an immersive listening experience that sees everything come together in just the right way. The video has a similarly soothing feel to it, and does a great job of accentuating the best features of the track and bringing it all together seamlessly.
WI am not a religious person, but I believe in the intelligent loving force in the universe that guides us at all times.” Evelí Ray says of the track.“This song talks about wandering in the shadows and longing for light. There are periods in our lives when we feel disconnected somehow – scared, anxious or lost. It’s very easy to make bad choices then and lose hope. We might reconnect with the source of love (this ocean of energy we all come from) within in silence and then share it in the arms of the beloved.”
