A whimsical synth and piano line seems to recontextualize the day’s ups and downs, suggesting a more playful lens with which to frame the view. It’s a sunny, joyful melody, and a kind of nostalgic reminder that the child within is always available. We’re then met with an expansive sound wash, like the unveiling of a vista overlooking a vast shore of what might be. Shimmering synth samples and washed out tones introduce an entirely new celestial theme — leaving the known behind, as a slow flux of gauzy waveforms softly assert inner resolve.

Original music from composer Ryan Holladay.
