Jakob The Liar will always surprise you. His music is a cinematic chapter in many different dramas. The result takes tributaries that turn into many emotional rivers. In this particular story, you are taken into the protagonist’s tale within time. This one is called Sunchild.
The opening melodies alone can treat you to liminal spaces that are psychological limbo. This composition becomes one of his best, with a lot of detail and effort. If you pay attention to the layers, there are harmonies, the core progression, lyrical brilliance all pouring in to stitch the tapestry of this song. There is an anthemic aura to the song, though it feels like a page from the journal as well. As the movements develop, you can feel the moon come closer, tides rise-till they reach an emotional crux that will leave you spellbound.
The song recedes, back into the horizon as it began, just like the full circle of the story it was telling. Jakob The Liar isn’t spinning tales of lore and rich myth. This is the closest you can get to the perspective of the protagonist in question, while respecting the equilibrium, like he has done. Masterful.
Songs like Crystallised in Moonshine, HEARTBEAT are some superb numbers from Jakob The Liar to experience. Each song will take you on a tangent to another planet, so be prepared for a transcendental experience. I feel Garden State (2004), would be a brilliant movie to feature this particular song. Something about Jakob’s surreal wordplay and melodies seems to channel life into the scene. Listen to his song above and follow him for more!
