“Burial” is a potent concoction of emotion and intensity, blurring the lines between ballad and beastly. Suave’s airy falsetto slides in, as he pours his heart out over poignant piano chords and airy pads. Twinkling textures flutter as orchestral melodies build the intensity and tension. The vocals switch from reflective to aggressive as the emotion boils to the surface before bursting into the dynamic drops. Wonky bass collides with laser synths, glitchy flourishes, and swirling vocals, which erupt into a powerful, pulsing colour bass drop. A brief reprieve resets the energy before exploding into a heavy-hitting dubstep finale. “Burial” shows three dynamic talents digging into a shared vision of profound, genre-splintering artistic expression.
STAR SEED speaks to the significance of the release, saying, “‘Burial’ is one of those songs that felt destined from the start. Kozmoz and I had the bones of the idea for a while, but it wasn’t until Suave laid down his vocals that the emotion of the track really came to life. His voice added the soul we didn’t know it was missing. This one’s been a long time in the making, and it’s surreal to finally share it with the world.”
Kozmoz offers his perspective on how the track came together, saying, “I’m proud of what we had developed. I added a heavy spin to the track, which gave more aggression. We felt that it complemented his emotional sound design well. Together, we developed a track that truly combined our techniques, and we are very proud of what we came up with.”
