Wabi Sabi turns shadows into soundscapes with hauntingly beautiful “Nightmares”

Wabi Sabi is here to turn discomfort into comfort with their new single, “Nightmares.” At first listen, the track seems like a musical, fragile but disturbing, dreamy yet earthly. But that’s where the magic comes in. True to the title’s spirit, “Nightmares” travels an emotional terrain of the unknown, where the surreal borderlands of fear and wonder creep in slow time.

The song begins like a soft fog moving into a sleepy town, which is exactly what it should be. Picking up on a strange but gentle vibe, anxiety hums softly beneath warm, smiling faces. Wabi Sabi shades us into a world where nothing is quite as it seems. The production is lusciously spare, giving room for everything to breathe. Ethereal synth layers curl like vapor over textured, throbbing percussion, and a fragile vocal delivery leaves the listener feeling simultaneously naked and soothed.

It’s within that contradiction that “Nightmares” flourishes. Wabi Sabi channels the angst of acclimating to something new, a place, a feeling, or perhaps, a version of self, but also roots this discomfort in something perfectly welcoming. The track acts as a lullaby for the emo-enough displaced, a safe space in a world that feels manic and chaotic. Instead of heading toward melodrama or overproduction, “Wabi Sabi” is inward-focused. Every note seems deliberate, like a footfall in strange terrain. The lyrics are poetic and enigmatic, and although they don’t stray too far from cliché, they allow for interpretation. You’re not merely listening to the story but at its center.

Ava Valianti turns self-doubt into art with “Laugh Track”

In her new single, “Laugh Track,” Ava Valianti takes us on a peculiar journey through her thoughts and feelings, which many can connect to. With a mix of dark humor and raw honesty, Ava shares her experience of feeling like life is more of a series of awkward moments rather than a smooth story where she’s the star.

Drawing inspiration from movies and shows that explore deep emotions, like The Truman Show and How I Met Your Mother’s Ted Mosby, “Laugh Track” captures the unsettling feeling of always being on stage, even when nobody’s watching. It resounds with anyone who has sat alone and questioned whether the laughter around them is meant for them or at their expense.

The song combines deeper sounds with a light, catchy vibe, making its heavy themes approachable enough for dancing. Ava’s voice is strong and open, giving each line an authentic feeling that hits home.

“Laugh Track” is a stand-out because it embraces chaos. Ava doesn’t wrap up her insecurity and self-doubt in a tidy package. Instead, she celebrates the messiness of life and finds comfort in the imperfect characters we often see on TV and in ourselves. “Laugh Track” mirrors our experiences. Like the best comedy shows, it makes you laugh, feel uncomfortable, and reminds you that you’re not alone in your struggles.
