ODIN presents "New Feelings," a tune that perfectly combines mournful nostalgia with hope for what the future holds. Inspired by the fading heat of late summer, “Cold Front” is a moment to pause and reflect before warming back up again, making love during the vibrant months of loving. There’s a clear intention behind each beat, which gently leads the listener through its emotional landscape.
Percussion and maraca rhythms fill the song with light-bathed vibrancy in contrast to its inherent melancholy. Through the prism of ODIN's singular sophistication, the instruments conspire to generate a sumptuous environment: intimate and vast in equal measure, allowing the song to sound out with such resonance on an emotional level.
"New Feelings" is subtly emotionally evocative without crossing the line into intense. It’s the kind of record that has a filmic warmth and production value, making listeners effortlessly able to drop in to the here-and-now indoors on a nippy, chilly day yet simultaneously ponder at how time and the emotions weave around each other.
ODIN showcases a unique ability to intermingle musing and rhythm. “New Feelings” is a classic summer track, and its hypnotic rhythms call forth the bittersweet nuances of the season in both subtle regret and shimmering hope, but refreshed into an unprecedented luminescent confidence.
