Somebody I Know by deulrejang feels similar to a quiet night at a park, the sound of youngsters taking part in within the background whilst you zone out to the clouds shifting. All 4 tracks are quiet, fairly and might be therapeutic for some.
It’s a lovely mix of bedroom-pop, ballad, and shoegaze, and saved in a minimal, virtually naked sound in manufacturing. However under no circumstances does it really feel incomplete; reasonably comforting. It’s an album that offers quiet accompaniment to the lonely and therapeutic to the wounded.
The title observe below the identical identify, “Some I Know” begins with a opposite movement development on the piano, adopted by some easy percussion and Hammond organ chords with a cool, brass baseline. Then the wealthy instrumentals slowly construct up in concord with deulrejang’s candy vocals within the refrain until the tip. The tune awakens your inside youngster and invitations you to dive into these reminiscences you didn’t know existed, within the nook of your thoughts someplace.
The truth is, the visualisers of the album see deulrejang participating in childhood actions like blowing bubbles, roaming the woods, and taking part in 공기놀이 (Gonggi). The music video for “Some I Know” options her impassive on a swing journey, the background blurry with the low shutter as the daylight blinds the digicam. “Somebody I do know” sounds nostalgic, virtually like a type of Japanese kids’s people songs, however with deulrejang’s personal twist to it.
“Can’t Sleep” then again, is an much more delicate observe with quiet instrumentals and deulrejang’s naked, barely breathy vocals. In comparison with “Somebody I Know,” the minimal manufacturing is intentional because the vocals soften into the woodwind-inspired base. Whereas “Hate Me” sends the listener into an surprising spiral of rock instrumental within the refrain, “Generally (Demo ver)” returns to muffled piano taking part in and deulrejang’s sole voice.
All in all, Somebody I Know is a dainty little album that calls for your consideration, regardless of the ups and downs in its instrumental variations; all 4 tracks are glued collectively by deulrejang’s gentle voice. The wealthy textures within the album communicate the tragic story of intimate relationships nicely — quiet heartbreaks, wet evenings, and the refusal to let go.
