about

Atlanta's Solomon Fesshaye returned to his craft after Star City / Save Our Place, his breakout debut digital single on Ghostly International, released in the spring of 2022. The first tracks to emerge, "Invisible Hand" and "Awake," reveal new approaches and refined signatures for the melody-driven electronic pop project, two compelling sides of his sonic range.

"Invisible Hand" introduces Solomon, the singer, pairing unexpected vocals with soaring synth and piano patterns. In his low emotive register, evoking the Blue Nile's Paul Buchanan or Peter Gabriel at his most meditative, Fesshaye sends devotional verses to the heavens. He says the track expresses "the sense and realization that there is so much more than we could ever understand, conceive of, much less see."

"Awake" also touches on themes of the divine and infinite, but here the producer uses "Star City"-like synth lines to repeat his musical phrase. The pulsing drums move towards a euphoric finish, met with piano rumblings and a flurry of echoing synth layers. "I wrote this track and would test how it made me feel on the subway in New York, on my way to and back from surfing. It’s my favorite so far.”
