Song Review/ New Age : Simonne Draper and Jon Kennedy’s ‘Finesca II’
If you want to immerse in an ethereal folk atmosphere, then ‘Finesca II’ by Simonne Draper and Jon Kennedy has you covered. The multi-instrumentalists and composers have created such an explorative and experimental soundscape with this one. There are moments of soft and intimate expression. Melodies and chorals that make you feel like you’re in an enchanting forest, discovering a new world. It feels plush and alive but also grounds and connects you vastly.
Filtered with moments of dynamic leaps of spontaneity, darkness, drifts and beats, we go through phases of softness and impact, plateaus and peaks. The ebbing and flowing of the composition speaks to the complexity and dimensions of the theme. Left up to the interpretation and imagination of the listener, it can be a way to think about things.
