Leo Von Sol's new single, "Zero Gravity," perfectly balances the heady heights of love with the disquieting, unknowing edge of love with expert precision. Set to be the leading track on his forthcoming second EP, "The Karman Line," the snippet of this track combines vocals with folk-tinged guitars to create a raw portrait of falling in love.
"Zero Gravity" envelops listeners in a dreamy soundscape from the first note, reminiscent of the feeling of weightlessness, like an emotional freefall where excitement collides with fear. Von Sol's reflective lyrics tell a story of the struggle to let go, the battle to have faith, and the internal warfare between submission and self-preservation. His fragile and firm voice leads us through this emotional tangle, making each phrase feel like a whispered confession.
The production is a breezy meld of atmospheric and organic, where breezy grooves flit next to earthy acoustic elements, bolstering the song's overarching theme as if Von Sol was inviting us to accept that uncertainty, to surrender the notion that love must always end in heartbreak, that we instead can bask in the warm glow of what we have now.
"Zero Gravity" is a milestone in Von Sol's artistic self-discovery. It's about learning to trust, not just in love, but in oneself and the music that narrates our tales. With "The Karman Line" on the way, this track makes it clear what kind of emotionally rich and sonically mesmerizing music the collection is sure to feature.
