“Lost Contact” is a spacey, blissfully atmospheric success from Electric Space Poet, where subdued vocals, tender acoustics, and illuminated piano complement a starry-eyed synth-touched mystique. “Maybe I forget all the distance we made and focus on my regrets,” the vocals let out to start, conveying a vulnerable relatability in the “been there before” admissions as the riveting piano work arrives.
The track’s final minute bolsters the enchanting sound with added rhythmic allure, as the synths attain an arp-y brightness and the acoustics/piano interplay continues onward. “Lost Contact” is an immersive, melodically memorable success from Electric Space Poet, who notes that the “song started as a fingerstyle guitar piece, later built around a tongue drum melody that fitted naturally.”
