Returning with another piece if gorgeous, emotional and explicitly creative alt-pop, "cupped and open," from Berlin-based Mogli – is a captivating preview of what's to come from this multi-faceted artist. The track showcases Mogli's signature blend of introspective lyrics and ethereal vocals, all wrapped in a delicate electronic soundscape.
“„cupped and open“ explores a special connection I have with someone who keeps me both safe and free – my ultimate definition of love. It’s a hopeful story in dark times, saying: a gentle love is indeed possible.” – Mogli
"cupped and open" is a testament to Mogli's growth as a songwriter. The lyrics explore themes of love, vulnerability, and resilience with a raw honesty that is both refreshing and relatable. Mogli's vocals, at times haunting and at times soaring, perfectly convey the emotional depth of the song.
The production is equally impressive, with subtle electronic elements that complement Mogli's voice without overwhelming it. The overall atmosphere is one of intimacy and introspection. With "cupped and open," Mogli proves once again that she is a force to be reckoned with in the alt-pop scene. It's the first track from what we can fairly expect to be a stunning forthcoming album project.
