Some songs deserve to be listened to; Others are meant to be felt. "The Voice in the Silence," by Richard Yot, falls into the latter camp, an experience rather than a tune, a journey rather than a song. "The Voice in the Silence" grates for your attention from the first bars; it beckons for it.
The soft opening slowly uncoils as you embrace the unknown with delicate optimism. But as the song progresses, it expands layer by layer, sound by sound, into something much more ominous, sweeping you up in an emotional ascent that you didn't even notice taking place until you're entirely swallowed.
"The Voice in the Silence" relinquishes, lowering you down, not with a thud, but with a sigh. The last moments melt into a wash of wind and white noise like the universe exhaling after an epiphany. This is music for people who want to reach deeper inside them, who want to be shouted at in ways they can't consistently articulate.
This music doesn't demand your attention from the very first notes. This music doesn't demand your attention from the very first notes. This music doesn't demand your attention from the very first notes. This music doesn't demand your attention from the very first notes. Richard Yot has delivered an experience that doesn't just bounce around your ears; it resonates with your soul. For listeners interested in being taken somewhere by music, "The Voice in the Silence" is a passport to pass somewhere further somewhere without words.
