Imagine a genre-bending elixir, swirling with the hypnotic energy of downtempo EDM, the soulfulness of live instruments, and the heady perfume of world fusion. This concoction isn’t a figment of your imagination; it’s the recent sonic masterpiece by Singapore’s very own Arun Shenoy, titled “A Higher State of Bliss.” Shenoy, a GRAMMY-nominated artist who wears the hats of songwriter, producer, and musical alchemist, isn’t new to crafting sonic tapestries. But with “A Higher State of Bliss,” he transcends the ordinary, taking us on a journey that’s as much meditative as it is dance-inducing.
The song explodes onto the scene not with a bang, but with a beguiling whisper. Tongue-like vocalizations, precise and controlled, weave a hypnotic chant, setting the stage for aural transcendence. These aren’t the average backing vocals – they’re carefully crafted, each note a brushstroke on the canvas of sound. They feel almost sentient, drawing us deeper into the sonic tapestry before. A melody unlike any other takes center stage. It’s the bansuri flute, its rich, reedy tones soaring with an almost supernatural grace
But “A Higher State of Bliss” isn’t a solo performance. Shenoy, ever the collaborator, incorporates a symphony of live virtuoso performances. Hints of jazz and world music peek through the electronic production, adding depth and texture. Each instrument feels masterfully placed, contributing to the overall feeling of joyous ascension.
Listening to “A Higher State of Bliss” was an experience for me and will be for potential listeners. With this track, Shenoy invites us on a journey that transcends cultures and languages. It’s a song for the soul, a sonic meditation that uplifts and inspires. Whether you choose to vibe or dance, it is guaranteed to leave you feeling invigorated and transported. It’s a sonic journey that invites us to close our eyes, let go, and surrender to a higher state of bliss
