A soaring atmospheric success that melds jazz, psychedelic pop, and electronica, “lost at sea” is a recently released track from Jonah Hiro. A caressingly introspective vocal presence lingers within, as lounge-friendly keys and spacey electronic elements pair with lovely jazz accents — particularly in the piano work and rhythm section. Aesthetically reminiscent of Air, the result is a track that feels fit for escapist day-dreaming, to another planet entirely — with the “fall into the ocean” lyrical beckoning suggesting a giving in to intoxicating surrender. A magnetic outro, with pulsing synths and flourishing vocal layers, wholly satiates as well.
