‘Home’ doesn’t have a ruckus energy. It’s not the kind of pulsating and in your face trance track that has you gasping for breath while feeling on top of the world. What it is, is a much more measured, comfortable, and serenading piece of deep house. Nightingale’s goal with the track was to highlight the feelings and emotions we undergo while we’re searching for our home. Not in a literal sense of course, but a broad and figurative way of exploring our own journey to find a calling. That quest to identify who we are in the world is nuanced and long, it’s not rushed and aggressive.
There’s an element of lyricism and vocals to the track that do help to build that feeling of yearning and inquest. But it’s in that constant melody, the simple and gradual build up, where ‘Home’ hits the hardest. A journey and a feeling, captured in a beat. The ideal form of electronic music.
