Grammy-nominated vocalist HALIENE has unveiled her latest solo single, ‘Memory Of You.’ The track showcases her powerful vocals against a backdrop of melodic bass, exploring the bittersweet emotions of a past relationship. This marks HALIENE’s first solo original release on Ophelia Records. The single was debuted at the Lost in Dreams festival in Los Angeles, marking a significant milestone in her career.
Collaborating with fellow singer-songwriter Annika Wells, HALIENE crafted poignant lyrics that delve into the complexities of nostalgia and heartbreak. The song’s production features a captivating blend of melodic elements and driving beats, creating a sonic landscape that perfectly complements the emotional depth of the lyrics.
Here’s what HALIENE had to say about the track:
“The song explores the juxtaposition of a nostalgic picture of a fading relationship with the chilling reality of waking up to its failure. How does one let go of something that your heart wants to hold onto? Sometimes, the memory of it all lives more fondly in the mind than the reality of what it actually was. That fact, once realized, becomes a powerful and positive means of liberation. We can make the intentional choice to frame our memories of the person in love and not hurt, even when there’s not much that’s genuine to hold onto. It expresses a profound way of releasing and meaningfully crystallizing, even a painful past in love to move on and let go.”
Known for her collaborations with dance music titans like Armin van Buuren, Illenium, and Gareth Emery, HALIENE has established herself as a leading voice in the electronic music scene. Evolving beyond collaborations, HALIENE has solidified herself as a genre-defying solo artist, seamlessly bridging the gap between poetic lyricism and melodic dance music.
