When entering Apstara’s blissful and hypnotic aural universe, ethereal is the keyword. It has become a unique selling point for the Los Angeles-based songstress, a heartfelt and poignant blend of new age textures and slow-paced, hypnotic vocal melodies. Apstara is rather adamant about what it means for the listener: “ethereal music to inspire the soul ✨”, as her Instagram tagline triumphantly displays. We can confirm that’s true: everything one hears from the project carries a heightened degree of dreaminess, aiding real introspection and heavy escapism.
Apstara is who you listen to if one were to strive for a higher plane of abstraction. Leaving the material world behind, keen listeners can ask for help from the American songstress and her meditative, mellow catalogue. In that sense, ‘Con Te Partirò’ fits the bill rather perfectly. Dubbed as ‘etherealised version’, Apstara’s latest release draws from Italian classical tradition, framing the Bocelli-famed classic into a celebration of angelic voices, ambient soundscapes and striking new-age character. We suspect the single will connect to a wide audience out there, and it might serve as a timely point of contact between Apstara and casual listeners, proving it a crucial entry point into her artistic world, the gateway to a deeper consciousness.
Known by day as Juliet Lyons, Apstara has so far created an impressive and meaningful body of work. ‘Con Te Partirò’ belongs to her ‘Etherealized Series’, seeking to “reimage iconic songs through a lens of ambient mysticism, ethereal vocal architecture, and cinematic depth.” There’s more to come! If that’s not enough, one might also benefit from Apstara’s ‘One-Minute Mantra Series’, short musical affirmations aiding meditative work.
