Land of Light pulses confidently while resonating beautifully. LEMY (aka Anastasia Ledovskaya), in this debut, bridges Moscow and London, indie rock and synth-pop, English and Russian, all wrapped in a shimmering, introspective glow. The opener, โHigh,โ floats in on pillowy melodies and staccato beats that prattle beneath LEMYโs husky, emotional vocal. She sings like sheโs letting go of a secret, light and soothing yet loaded with meaning. The harmonies shimmer just out of reach, giving the track a soulful lift that makes it feel like a dream youโre slowly waking up from.
But just when you think the EPโs going to stay in ambient waters, โBe Who You Areโ takes flight as it pulses with liberation. All catchy, twinkling synths and that pulsing rhythm feel like a heartbeat mid-run. Whereas, LEMYโs voice soars with graceful power.
Then thereโs โPart of the Way (To Mother),โ arguably the emotional gut punch of the project. With gentle piano and jittery percussion, it feels like a confessional. LEMYโs voice is thick with longing, almost breaking as she yearns for her motherโs presence.
Produced by Vladislav Mazur at Chuvakam Studio and sculpted with delicate care, Land of Light balances bedroom vulnerability and studio polish effortlessly.
With this project, LEMY is debuting a worldview, with her profundity becoming more prevalent than the need for perfection. Listen to Land of Light on Spotify.
