Filip Dahl is a masterful storyteller, even without words. The unique way the guitar is played in each song brings the emotions to life, creating a connection that will deeply involve the audience. For instance, the title track, with its soaring guitars and jangly instrumentals, evokes a highly upbeat, exhilarating feeling. “Flight of the Unicorn” and “Elevated to a Higher Ground” paint a more melancholic picture. “Flight of the Unicorn” sounds like it should be a powerful theme track for an iconic action film. Its electric guitar resonates with a nostalgic feel reminiscent of guitar-driven 1980s hair bands such as Scorpions or Guns N’ Roses.
“Turning Darkness into Light” is an anthem, a testament to the emotional strength of instrumental music. The infectious tune that repeats throughout is bound to uplift listeners. The final track, “Dreaming,” is a soothing journey that evokes the feeling of drifting into a carefree sleep, if only for a moment. The melodic tune played by the electric guitar acts as a driving force, showcasing the power of instrumental music to evoke and amplify emotions.
