Antistar – “Pyrotexnima”

A serene yet emotively impactful sound lingers throughout “Pyrotexnima,” a consuming new single from Greek alt-rap poet Antistar. Translating from Greek into “Firework,” “Pyrotexnima” also features production from Tedis, whose atmospheric talents combine with Antistar’s poetic prowess for a compelling, replay-inducing success. An ambient hip-hop intrigue flows grippingly within, consistently enamoring in its cinematic-like mystique.

An atmospheric immersion takes hold right away, as rainy-day keys move into an equally calming vocal introspection. The Greek lyricism pairs with the clanging keys and haunting synth pads for a memorably emotive sound, with Tedis’ production excelling in balancing atmosphere and melodic approachability. A sense of lonesome and yearning is conveyed within; the steady vocal tone and spacey electronic soundscape prove riveting through this thorough success of a track from Antistar and Tedis.

This and other tracks featured this month can be streamed on the updating Obscure Sound’s ‘Emerging Singles’ Spotify playlist.
