‘Ever Lasting (永·恒)’ marks our point of entry into STRlighT‘s burgeoning and electrifying music catalogue. Hailing from China, the visionary producer, artist and DJ has recently unveiled his second studio album, a hypnotic journey into plastic EDM tones and personal imagery. There’s as much aural glory as there is lyrical depth, signalling a complete, well-balanced album.
From a musical standpoint, ‘Ever Lasting (永·恒)’ feels quite eclectic, threading the fine line between emotive EDM and vocal-powered alt-pop. Moments such as ‘Blue’ suggest a more song-based approach from STRlighT, a striking contrast from the future bass territories of ‘December’ and the electronic drops of ‘You Light Me Up’. ‘Don’t Care’ is especially minimalist, at least up until the epic outro. Featuring a vast list of collaborators, the twelve tracks in ‘Ever Lasting (永·恒)’ offer a closer look at STRlighT’s eclectic universe.
Expanding the lyrical and creative premise behind the album, STRlighT explains: “a record of youthful memories, a story of redeemed sentiments, a collection of obsessions and anticipations… I sincerely hope this album can gently reach your heart and deeply resonate with my listeners.” We are confident it will, given its highly poignant and evocative character. Plus, it provides valuable insights into the Chinese music scene, as it’s clear there’s a ton of talent emerging from it.
