Sergey Khomenko – A Story about Yesterday
Sergey Khomenko’s A Story About Yesterday brings listeners to an era of cinematic elegance and nostalgia. The music begins with ethereal synthesizers which bring back the drama and tension of 1970s cinematic soundtracks. This first impression is both deep and shaking, driving the listener into its universe. At 0:26, the music changes gently to a more new-age sound that reminded of Mike Oldfield. While the drama remains, the suspense slows down, enabling gentle piano notes that create a bittersweet sadness. This addition sounds influenced by Vangelis, since it adds a vulnerable, expressive dimension to the composition. The song is a wonderful musical trip with multiple feelings that effectively flow into one another. Interesting panning effects provide dimension to the music, creating a sense of movement and space that improves the experience.
