The song starts with beautiful piano melodies, followed by ethereal beats\u00a0that perfectly match Ria&#8217;s\u00a0gentle voice. These elements create a dreamy, mystical atmosphere that recalls Kate Bush and Siouxsie Sioux&#8217;s best work. The mix of the groovy\u00a0colors,\u00a0\u00a0soft\u00a0piano, and colorful synth pads creates an elegant atmosphere that is ethereal and cozy. At 1:12, the arrangement takes an unexpected turn, with moving strings and a folk-inspired singing style which reflects Wardruna&#8217;s energy. This development adds a physical, earthy element to the track, which contrasts wonderfully with its previous angelic sounds. For Want Of is a combination of dream pop, folk, and gothic atmosphere that highlights Ria&#8217;s willingness to create spiritually expressive\u00a0music. It&#8217;s a song that takes listeners to an \u00a0enigmatic world.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-embed-aspect-16-9 wp-has-aspect-ratio wp-block-embed is-type-video is-provider-youtube wp-block-embed-youtube\"><div class=\"wp-block-embed__wrapper\">\n<iframe loading=\"lazy\" title=\"AURSJOEN - For Want Of (OFFICIAL VIDEO)\" width=\"640\" height=\"360\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/pzDMykSUNKw?feature=oembed\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share\" referrerpolicy=\"strict-origin-when-cross-origin\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe>\n<\/div><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Photo Credit: photo by David Kruschke<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><a href=\"http:\/\/www.facebook.com\/aursjoen\">http:\/\/www.facebook.com\/aursjoen<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><a href=\"http:\/\/aursjoen.bandcamp.com\/\">http:\/\/aursjoen.bandcamp.com\/<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.instagram.com\/riaaursjoen\">https:\/\/www.instagram.com\/riaaursjoen<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Ria Aursjoen, famous vocalist and keyboardist for post-punk band Octavian Winters, offers an elegant\u00a0atmospheric work&#8230;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":26040,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"nf_dc_page":"","footnotes":""},"categories":[14,5],"tags":[4165,533,283],"class_list":["post-26039","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-pop-rock-reviews","category-reviews","tag-aursjoen","tag-dream-pop","tag-folk"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/skylight.gr\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/26039","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/skylight.gr\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/skylight.gr\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/skylight.gr\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/skylight.gr\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=26039"}],"version-history":[{"count":2,"href":"https:\/\/skylight.gr\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/26039\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":26087,"href":"https:\/\/skylight.gr\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/26039\/revisions\/26087"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/skylight.gr\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/26040"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/skylight.gr\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=26039"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/skylight.gr\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=26039"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/skylight.gr\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=26039"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
