I find myself lost in its beauty every time I try to write about this song, replaying it over and over until I forget the time. However, today I am ready to talk about this talented artist and her new stunning single. After a four-year hiatus, Emaline Delapaix is back with “When The Light Falls And The Bear Sleeps”, a breathtaking winter lullaby that captures the essence of slowing down, reflecting, and letting go. The first few seconds will be enough to have you hooked, it’s a masterpiece from start to finish. The vocal melodies are unique and the instrumentation feels traditional including mandolin, violin, cello and the Swedish nyckelharpa to create a beautiful Scandinavian atmosphere. The quality of this song is amazing and each element is perfectly placed in the mix.
Emaline’s pure and charming vocals will draw you into her world of winter landscapes and quiet introspection. The production sounds polished with excellent mixing and mastering that bring warmth to the icy imagery in the lyrics. The song comes with a simple yet professional and well directed music video that offers a full sensory experience. I’ll be honest, this is one of the most captivating records I’ve heard in months. It’s a masterpiece that lingers in the heart long after it ends, simply stunning.
