“Burn” by Cracks in the Real: A Distorted Descent into Fear and Frustration

Take a walk into the atmospheric haunts of "Burn," the new single from "Cracks in the Real." A perfect blend of raw emotion and experimental soundscapes come together to take the listener on an introspective journey. It is a track that encapsulates the sense of paranoia and desperation with its dark undertones. For fans of moody, genre-bending music, this song packs a listening experience that’s harrowing and contemplative.

Cracks in the Real is the solo project of a bedroom producer whose range of influences extends from Aphex Twin to The Cure and Autechre. With a do-it-yourself ethos and an uncompromisingly authentic vision, the artist’s music is deeply personal and wholly original. All of the tracks are written, performed, and produced from behind the walls of their home studio, an honest ability to fashion immersive sonic environments.

"Burn is a hypnotic piece of electronic artwork that is twisty and masterfully produced. "

“Burn” breaks apart traditional forms, stitching together melancholy melodies and off-kilter textures. Drawing breathy and shy-covered vocals, the lyrics are buried deep into the murky music here, creating both an atmospheric pathos and a sense of urgency and unease. The production is a highlight for its combination of minimalist beats and lush atmospherics, and it draws listeners into the emotional centre of the songs. This song shows how the artist can transform quiet reflection into arresting sound.

A fierce deep dive into the low-level scummy aspects of humanity, Burn is an exciting record for anyone looking for something meaty and original to add to their playlist. The link to the track is attached below.
