HOME is a fairly standard song in theme and conception. An immensely relatable topical element, which fixates on our perennial search for a place where we feel loved and comfortable enough to call it home drives the tune. The acoustic dominant folk pop piece is deeply emotive, an overbearingly melancholic arrangement and composition that contrasts itself with a central feeling of hope and imagination makes it all the more welcoming. The chorus, simple and repetitive, is the ideal steering wheel for this passionate rendition of a search for a place to be loved in.
BAYWUD’s acoustic work is a definite highlight, intricate but not exquisitely detailed enough to derail you from your experience. With a series of acoustic live videos also in the store, there’s a ton of imagery associated with each piece that BAYWUD has crafted not just through his own vivid arrangement and song writing but also in actual visuals.
Poignant and powerful, HOME is just the kind of record you want to hear when you’re feeling lost and despondent.
