Essie Jain: Glory
One of the most incredible things you can do with a song is start off very small and quiet. And stay that way. Subtle variations in volume, or an alteration to the way an instrument is played can be surprisingly effective. Essie Jain’s track Glory begins and ends small and quiet. The middle’s the same too. But the additional voice, tiniest supporting guitar lines, and the almost-absent ambient musical washes build something powerful. You might even hear Hugo Largo. It’s brilliant.
You can listen to Glory on Essie Jain’s website or better still, buy the album
We Made This Ourselves from iTunes.
