The Music Of Sound are riding a serious wave in 2025, and their latest single “When You’re Near” proves they’re only getting dreamier with each release. Dropped on 18th April via Monochrome Motif Records, this track is a gentle, glowing dreampop anthem that feels like a warm hug wrapped in shimmering synths and subtle heartbeat rhythms. Right from the first second, you’re pulled into a haze of gritty buzz and steady, rolling drums that lay down the heartbeat of the track. Then, like the first light of dawn, in comes Sherin’s voice, soft, romantic, and full of that delicious longing that makes you want to replay your entire love life in slow motion. Her vocals float with this gorgeous smoothness, gently trailing through the verses like she’s trying to summon someone through the sound itself. It’s a transmission from the soul, beaming out hope and craving through every note.
As the music swells, it pulses warmly, wrapping you up like a protective blanket while her voice echoes and stretches across the soundscape. It feels like she’s singing into the void, reaching out to someone whose presence brings peace, warmth, and security. Whether it’s a lover, a best friend, or someone who simply makes life feel easier to breathe, “When You’re Near” captures that feeling with elegance and emotional punch.
And just when you think it’s peaked, in float the backing vocals, subtle, supportive, like words of reassurance from another dimension. It’s dreamy, it’s electro, it’s intimate in a cosmic way. So naturally, if you couldn’t tell, the Music Of Sound makes soundtracks for the moments you want to hold onto. “When You’re Near” is one of those tracks you’ll return to every time you miss someone, even if they’re right beside you. Listen to it on Spotify.
