With layers of vocals producing an ethereal ambience and a welcoming synth soundscape, Piper Cole’s latest single, “Gravity” invites you into a mysterious sonic world of transformation. Rhythmic instrumentals highlight Cole’s artistic depth and range, which is juxtaposed with the smooth flowing vocals and storytelling lyricism.
“Gravity” highlights rebirth in relation to life circumstances rather than escape. Its composition, written and produced during an otherwise chilly wintry period, incorporates retro synths and upbeat tempos for an energetic chorus that she credits with motivating her to move from Folktronica into synth pop, giving it her signature lush production quality and expressive vocals.
Drawing on Piper’s experience as a psychotherapist, the song examines themes of inner strength, during trying circumstances. Lyrically, it talks about finding one’s true path while feeling lost and directionless. This is all wrapped up in an interesting composition that skilfully combines voices and instrumentals to create a journey full of self-discovery and rejuvenation.
“Gravity”, speaks to our shared desire for transformation while serving as an encouragement that facing challenges can bring profound growth. With its dynamic arrangement and emotive lyrics, “Gravity” showcases Piper’s impressive ability to compose music that hits both emotional and artistic points simultaneously.
