Dark, brooding, and melancholic in melody, 5ON5’s latest piece ‘Let You Go’ sees the outfit experimenting with a new style. ‘Let You Go’ feels like a hypnotic electronic dream, the kind that warps you in with its rather lackadaisical and relaxed progression. Slowly, as yumin starts to get integrated into the song, the song moves from a place of much more subtle and calming melodic movement to a rising and grandiose scale that has your energy also empowered and ready to take on the day.
It’s the perfect escapist fantasy, starting from a reassuring and calming sensibility before ascending into these immense stratospheric heights that completely wash away your apprehensions and anxieties. An electronic fantasy in every which way.
