about

This new single is from the upcoming EP 'tábula smarágdina'. An eloquent and thought provoking vocal track that pushes the boundaries of synth-inspired music. With a captivating vocal performance from progressive artist Pastfinder, it references more emotionally charged forms of rock and metal. SNTHSTR keeps his production tight and layered to create something immersive, taking you on a journey and playfully introducing styles of music that you may have usually dismissed, but now can't help but engage with.

Apôtre (meaning 'apostle'), evokes themes of loneliness and desperation. The name itself is derived from the notion of a person's commitment to a cause and struggles in the face of adversity, in this case referring to the plight of a group of polar explorers. The track is both melancholic and uplifting, starting with a chilling spatial motif, gradually building to a full emotive crescendo.

lyrics

You look pale, my star
Tell me please, who hurt you?
What is gaping on your heart?
Who dared to touch you?

No one sees the shine of your sparks
I mean look around
There's nothing but
Lonely dunes of

Stardust
Can you hold the sun right in your hands?
Stardust

Her charcoal tears won't cool your hands
Skies will be asleep until she fades
Can you find escape from her embrace?
Restless, you have gone so far again

Smitten with her flamboyant sparks
Can you drown the sun, deep into your heart?

Trapped with her allure
Servant burned down
How can you endure?
Brittle bones turned into, turned into

Stardust
Can you hold the sun right in your hands?
Stardust

Her charcoal tears won't cool your hands
Skies will be asleep until she fades
Can you find escape from her embrace?
Restless, you have gone so far again
