Draiocht313's "Waterbaby" makes you feel like you're in an indie movie scene late at night, when the lights are low, the air is thick, and you get the feeling that something secret is going on. This dark and moody version of the classic song doesn't try to make you remember. Instead, it changes the song in a brave and respectful way that sounds like jazz. "Waterbaby" is more of a new version than a cover.
The modal jazz style from the Kind of Blue era is what "Waterbaby" is based on. It's all about mood, space, and restraint. The track's openness makes the tension build slowly, which lets feelings come out on their own instead of forcing them. You can't fake being yourself, and the live, first-take style makes you feel like you can be yourself. The song's beat comes from small mistakes, changes in speed, and how people naturally interact.
Draiocht313's music sounds a lot like the dark Bristol sound that was popular when trip-hop started. The mix sounds like fog, with old-school synth sounds that fade in and out. The thick basslines keep the song real. This sounds like it has been around for a while, like the rawness of trip-hop from the early 1990s, but it still follows jazz rules. "Waterbaby" values improvisation, likes the human touch, and mixes the closeness of a jazz club with the darkness of trip-hop. Draiocht313 not only breathes, trips, and haunts in all the right ways, giving an old song a fresh new twist. Putting the lyrics in this darker setting makes them seem more emotional and thoughtful.
