Blue of Noon

Ontario’s own elusive Blue of Noon; photograph appears courtesy of Black Lake.

Blue of Noon returns with the new enchanting audio essences of “Spell” that paints a sound portrait of ethereal, assuaged ecstasy unbound. Following up their recent premiere for the “Nightmare” video, the Ontario group abides by an alchemy that makes for the most beguiling & beautiful dreamlike textures. The feeling of being lost in the most amazing day dream is heard like being lost in a vacation paradise where thought & sentiments of stress, worry & work are far from these sacred & safe shores.
“Spell” shines with the glow of a cryptic incantation softly sung on a sunny day that materializes into a transporting magical moment. Blue of Noon maintains an incredible restrained & soft touch that allows the track to twinkle like a barely lit star just beginning to burst with it’s reflective glow that responds to the sun’s perpetual burn. Blue of Noon here breaks the “Spell” of your day to send forth audio fragrances & atmospheres of twilight & dusk where the feeling of nightfall descends gently upon the ears of the listeners. Synths guide the way the way here and invite all instrumental components to tag along for what sounds like an exclusive party just for sorcerers, wizards, alchemists, chemists, apothecaries and more.

Blue of Noon penned the following poetic reflections on the new single “Spell” with the following:

the quiet place is a doorway
that leads to a window
where everything is chaos.
there you will find a light
that will lead you
between the s o u n d & the m i s t
which hides the silence
that disappears when you know…
— you
—— are
——— there
——aren’t
— you?
“The most sublime act is to set another before you.”
-William Blake
