Come here And feel the heat in silent seas Your colours are safe from thieves You will see me perish You will see me stronger Seek, and songs will lead the way Armored Boy in hiding Armored Boy in hiding Stand tall And avoid their tricks and treats Your stories are for me to keep You will sees me cherish You will wait no longer Observe, and wear your shield this day.

about

Lifted from Kohib's sophomore album 'In Mountains' - released last year on Beatservice Records, the originally instrumental track 'Break of Dawn', returns as a full-fledged new single, now as 'Armored Boy'. This time presented in an new version adorned with the inimitably melancholic yet hopeful vocals of Bel Canto lead singer Anneli Drecker - also known for her studio work and live performances with Röyksopp and a-ha.

Imbued in mystique and soul-healing boreal ambiences, 'Armored Boy' elicits a heightened feeling of quiet and transcending affliction. Fused within slo-burning beds of tapping drums, clicks and ectoplasmic synthlines evoking a distant Valhalla, Drecker's at times unadulterated / at others slightly FX-altered voice plunges us in a world adrift, in-limbo betwixt earthly presence and ghostly void. A vastly forested no-man's-land of sorts inhabited by forlorn spectres and natural spirits, where guardian shadows and fleshly reminiscences not only coexist but weave and entangle in one mesmerising, symbiotic ballet.
