Words And Sound – Yellow

“Yellow” is a new composition by Words And Sound, a profoundly talented American musician, composer, and producer. This number serves as a dedication to his grandmother, and throughout the song, Words And Sound describes how it feels without her. It’s an emotive, sincere, meaningful song where this highly creative artist combines detailed, poetic storytelling with intricate soundscapes. Soundwise, “Words And Sounds” explores the fundamentals of electronic music by cleverly assembling sonic ingredients borrowed from complementary styles like experimental, cinematic ambient, downtempo, and folktronica. The artist gradually introduces detailed soundscapes in the form of pleasant ambiances, powerful drones, piano and key accentuations, sequenced melodies and harmonies, and downtempo beats. He wisely shapes the complex atmosphere where every layer plays a significant role and draws the listener even deeper into the intricacies of the song. The rhythmic sequences based on slow, heavy, well-accentuated beats define groove and pace but also keep the remainder of the instruments in line.
