Review By Halina Wegner
The Anix, the brainchild of Los Angeles artist and producer Brandon Smith, pulls you into a world of introspection with his latest alternative rock single, “Shadow.” This track is a tantalizing preview of his upcoming album, VOLTAGE, set to be released in late 2024 by FiXT. Known for pushing creative boundaries with his genre-blending mix of alternative rock and electronic elements, The Anix once again delivers a powerful, atmospheric composition that draws listeners into a deep emotional journey.
The Essence of “Shadow”
“Shadow” is a masterclass in blending melancholic undertones with energetic instrumentation. The Anix employs pulsating synthesizers, searing guitar riffs, brooding melodies, and haunting vocals to create a soundscape that is both immersive and reflective. The track dives into the concept of the “Shadow” self—a term used in psychology to describe the hidden aspects of our personalities that we rarely show to the world. For every positive trait we possess, there is a counteractive negative one, and it is this dichotomy that “Shadow” so poignantly explores.
“Shadow” is more than just a single; it’s an exploration of the human condition, delving into the truths we often keep hidden. The Anix’s latest release is a testament to his talent for creating music that is not only sonically engaging but also profoundly thought-provoking. As we await the full release of VOLTAGE, “Shadow” serves as a powerful reminder of the darkness we all carry within us and the art that can emerge when we dare to confront it.
“Shadow” is out now from FiXT. Dive into the darkness and let The Anix’s haunting melodies guide you through your own shadow self.
