There is something delicate and deftly wrought about this new single from Gungor. It is the very definition of ethereality, built from angelic vocals that swirl around at the top of the register, twinkling harps, sweeping strings and a whole lot of floating sonics and drifting atmospherics.
The song is built as much from what isn’t there as what actually is. For it is the spaces left as the vocal lines drift off or the music of one chord or note fades out that frames to instrumentation, positive sounds amplified by the negative spaces surrounding them.
Sometimes music makes its impact through bravado, boldness and bombast. This is not one of those times. Far from it. ‘I Still Love You’ is an exercise in the power of understatement, deftness and fragility. It’s a lesson all musicians can learn from.
