A gorgeously catchy electro-pop sound unveils on “Sacred Grid,” a new single from Alma Finch that balances dreamy illumination and infectious rhythmic thumps. The artist describes the track as “a lullaby for a wired world: part dystopian hymn, part rebellion” — also exploring “the tension between digital comfort and lost freedom.”
Bouncing bass and nocturnal keys establish an initial intrigue, while the “night burns electric” opening lyrics further that sense of nocturnal, futuristic mystique. The title-touting hook then ensues, as the vocals attain a more expressively melodic charm. The closing moments dazzles with a final go of the prancing keys and hypnotic bass pulses. Alma Finch’s “Sacred Grid” is firmly on repeat.
“Sacred Grid” comes via Alma Finch’s excellent new album, Borrowed Light, streaming below:
