Rayhan turns pain into poetry with soulful new single “Long Goodbye”
Rayhan has always been good at blurring music and stories, and in his new single “Long Goodbye,” he takes that ability to a new level. This is not just another breakup ballad or a lyrical delve into the past. It’s a slow-burning, big exhale, emotionally charged, the kind you let out after you’ve endured a storm and have that little epiphany when you see some Sun finally starting to peek through. “Long Goodbye” is a searing look at emotional burnout and reckoning. But Rayhan writes his way through it. The lyrics read like pages from a journal that you weren’t supposed to look at but cannot put down. Every line toes the line between confession and conclusion, with a tone that’s achingly honest and quietly triumphant all at once.
Where this track really rises above is in its emotional intelligence. Rayhan doesn’t point fingers. And it is in that vulnerability that the song is powerful. It’s as if he’s made a sonic mirror for anyone who’s ever had to let go, not with fireworks, but with a whisper. There’s a quiet about “Long Goodbye” that seems emblematic of the kind of growth that only occurs once chaos has fully wound down, an unexpected calm, as opposed to a forced peace. The production is also minimal, but it works well musically. It gives the lyrics space to breathe, to hit as hard as Rayhan intended. The arrangement is purposeful, none of the minutes are lost, and none of the notes are by accident.
It’s cinematic in the best sense of the word, which makes sense given Rayhan’s film background. It’s as if you can see the scene play out as you listen. There’s an undeniably personal element to this release, yet it’s remarkably universal. Whether you’re turning your back on a relationship, a version of yourself, or a chapter that’s overdue to close, “Long Goodbye” is a gentle balm, an assurance that tranquility doesn’t always arrive at a gallop. It’s something that happens quietly, you know, when you take one last look back. With “Long Goodbye,” Rayhan invites his listener to enjoy the song.

pixelgrinder powers up a dark and fully charged new release titled “Nocturnal”
Manchester, NH-based electronic-rock artist pixelgrinder steps boldly into the dark with debut release “Nocturnal.” It’s an amped-up set that trims both mood and muscle. As a creator of music made with cochlear implants, pixelgrinder has always found ways to defy listeners’ expectations creatively, by crafting all-encompassing soundscapes that are equal parts cinematic, mechanical, and deeply human.
“Nocturnal” ventures deeper into rock-based space than the artist’s debut album without straying from the dark electronic pulse that makes up pixelgrinder’s persona. Industrial textures scrape against great guitar lines, with driving rhythms injecting an alt-rock urgency that lends the project a solid late-night energy. The effect is less that of a gradual slipping into darkness than that of movement through it, unbending, concentrated and thrilling.
What makes “Nocturnal” interesting is how transitional it feels. This release serves as a stepping stone of sorts, linking past experiments in digital emotion whatever’s next. Hints of influence seem to come from darkwave and industrial rock, edging towards the more aggressive electronic body music on offer here, with its intensified percussion and broadened vocal arrangements that White Mask promises to deliver. On “Nocturnal,” pixelgrinder crystallizes a vision, and it’s a dark statement that hints at evolution, ambition, and an unquiet creativity that refuses to go into standby mode.
