Remembering cold and dark moments: "Sixth June - Drowning"
"Drowning" by Sixth June is a beautifully melancholic trip into cold wave alleys, driven by deep, pulsating synths that feel both hypnotic and cinematic.
Lidija Andonov’s vocals are ethereal yet haunting, gliding effortlessly over the atmospheric production. Subtle, minimalist percussion keeps the track steady, allowing the synth melodies to breathe. There’s an undeniable noir aesthetic, evoking a sense of mystery and nostalgia.
The production is lush but never overwhelming, maintaining a delicate balance of darkness and beauty. The influence of '80s cold wave is evident, but Sixth June adds their own modern, sophisticated touch. "Drowning" feels like a soundtrack to a lost film, while being moody, evocative, and immersive.
The accompanying visuals further enhance its dreamlike, cinematic quality. A mesmerizing, atmospheric piece that solidifies Sixth June’s mastery of synth-driven melancholy.
