In times of turmoil, we must turn inward and tend to the tender wounds of our inner child. This child, often abandoned in the rush of growing up, holds the key to our healing. By embracing the innocence and wonder within, we find solace and strength. Nurture this inner being with love and compassion, allowing the layers of fear and pain to dissolve. In this gentle journey, we rediscover the joy of simply being, free from the burdens of the past. Thus, in healing our inner child, we heal our whole self, reconnecting with the profound peace that resides within.
Hornet (Oh! Vered), hailing from New Jersey but heading across the pond to London, concocts a unique blend of dream pop and the gritty edge of alternative music. Her sound, influenced by the likes of Cocteau Twins, Sugarcubes, Frou Frou, and Nine Inch Nails, aligns with artists such as Viji, Suzy Clue, Sunken, Glixen, and Hatchie. Anchored by the bass guitar, her basslines and ethereal vocal harmonies create a haunting backdrop, while intricate, trip-hop-inspired rhythms add profound depth.
Her latest single and video for Feline ventures into the dreamy tune’s exploration of an inner child, oscillating between the starkness of NYC’s Financial District and the cozy sanctuary of a bedroom. Safe under the covers, the poignant clip moves back and forth in time, as memories are joyfully purged in a ritual fire. The video captures the fragile essence of nostalgia and introspection, intertwining past and present in a dance of shadows and light. It’s a vivid journey through emotional landscapes, where the raw edge of reality meets the ethereal whispers of dreams. Sometimes we just need to spend some time with our past to move forward in our lives. Godspeed.
