The sky can be undying, but Skytinual reminds us that even the most regular things are exchanged. After a decade-long hiatus, the artist formerly Dave Bush has returned, sharing a slice of his deeply introspective alt-pop sound with the brand new single "Changing Light." This marks the start of his adventure beneath the brand new moniker Skytinual, heralding a sparkling technology of creativity that captures both the impermanence and splendor of life.
"Changing Light" is a song that sneaks up on you, full of open-ended questions wrapped in wealthy alt-pop textures. Written amid a turbulent year that noticed Bush reflecting on the transience of life, The Unmarried attracts ideas from his zazen meditation exercise. Each verse asks you to sit with its uncertainties—"are we coming, are we going, that is proper?"—even as the chant-like chorus, "converting light, converting lifestyles," gently pulls you into the embody of the unknown.
The music is sonically lush, mixing nostalgic '80s alt-pop vibes with a modern-day twist. Kevin Scott from Government Mule lends his talents on bass, while Skytinual handles all contraptions, showcasing his dynamic musical variety. Though penned during a layover in Charlotte and steeped in reflections about friends and family grappling with cancer, "Changing Light" doesn’t stay in darkness. Instead, it offers a meditation on exchange—a hopeful acceptance of existence’s uncertainties and an invitation to embody anything that comes next.
