Beginning with an ambient introduction that is distantly akin to the orchestral tuning-up opening of The Beatles’ Sgt. Pepper’s Lonely Hearts Club Band, “Maestri” brings in melodic guitar lines that then take the song in a more ethereal shoegaze direction that may bring to mind some Pink Floyd, Rush, or Mike Oldfield influences.

Kiryn’s strong, characterful, and somewhat-haunting singing style delivers lyrics that are clearly enunciated and weave vocal melodies that soar above the instrumentation in the mix. The vocal timbre and performance works seamlessly with the wider elements of the song and creates a cohesive and full-bodied sound that brings the song together superbly. Against this backdrop, the band employ melodic changes and middle eights to bring exciting variety to the song which keeps the listener engaged during each play.

This song demonstrates Arcane Lullaby’s musical range and creativity whilst showing their skill at sonically layering their music to create textural and atmospheric songs.
