2 min read
“Sasha Bayan’s ‘Lucid’ is a musical magical carpet that travels listeners into a dreamy atmosphere from the very first note. Opening with ethereal guitar melodies reminiscent of the work of new age artists like Kitaro, the track immediately sets a relaxing tone. At 0:23, Sasha’s vocals delicately enter the scene, enhancing the dream-like ambiance with poetic lyrics that bring a sense of longing. Lines such as ‘so I can runaway with you/I live for the afterlife/I pray to God/I am following the light’ add emotional depth and romance to the composition, inviting listeners to immerse themselves fully in the listening experience. As the track progresses, it undergoes a stunning transformation, building towards a crescendo at 1:10 that elevates it from a tranquil acoustic ballad to a dynamic acoustic prog masterpiece. Drawing inspiration from the likes of Steven Wilson’s solo works and Marillion’s 1990s era, ‘Lucid’ showcases Sasha’s passion as an artist, mixing elements of progressive rock with introspective lyricism. Throughout the song, Sasha expertly balances moments of intensity with passages of tranquility, keeping listeners engaged and enthralled. At 1:38, the introduction of piano adds another layer of richness to the composition, infusing it with a subtle elegance and further enhancing its immersive quality. ‘Lucid’ is a Prog journey that touches the senses and leaves a lasting smile to the listener with its ethereal melodies and soundscapes.
