“moonlight” by Xoe-B is a captivating musical journey that seamlessly blends ambient sounds with glitchy electronic synths and Xoe-B’s mesmerizing vocals.
The roomy ambient background music sounds like water droplets pattering and echoing in a bathroom sound reflected by the tiles. This whole aura provides an intriguing and immersive backdrop. This auditory setting is essential for understanding the music video’s context, where Xoe-B is submerged in a bathtub and seen in scenes at rocky beach pools. The music, therefore, becomes a soundtrack to these captivating visuals, enhancing the overall experience.
Over this ambient foundation, Xoe-B introduces glitchy electronic synths that add an element of surprise and intrigue. The glitchy sounds create a sense of unpredictability, which keeps the listener engaged throughout the track.
Xoe-B’s vocals are undoubtedly the centerpiece of “moonlight.” Her comfortable tone yet highly dynamic vocal style reinforces the immersion as she glides and grooves throughout the song easily.
What’s particularly impressive is how she turned a midnight panic attack to this rather mesmerizing song, “moonlight.” This raw, emotional origin shines through in the song’s authenticity and vulnerability. The finishing touches added by upcoming artist and producer Atticus Blue further elevate the track’s production quality.
“Moonlight” combines ambient, electronic, and pop elements, and showcases Xoe-B’s versatility as an artist. It’s clear that genre boundaries do not confine her but instead draw inspiration from a diverse range of artists, including Jamiroquai, Dua Lipa, and Tori Kelly.
