Okay, so this masterpiece by Holt is the kind of music that one can easily mistake as a song that’s centred right in the heart EDM genre. All thanks to Linkin Park band and other rock bands, It is automatically assumed by most music enthusiast that each time a song title has anything relating to glass that the song gotta be a work adorn in metal rock and audio inferno sound, however, this is quite not the case here.
Undoubtedly, most times the word ‘glass’ was used as song title was mostly the song that’s associated with a rock song. If you’ve not heard this song before, your first impression after some few notes and sound hit your auditory meatus would probably be “oh wow I thought this was gonna be a metal-head”
This song is the perfect orgasmic song in New Age music genre that’s wrapped with a unique chilly sound and tranquil inductive quality. Simply put, Holt’s ‘A Man of Glass’ is Cool Calm and Collected New Age music. This music is stuffed with appealing smooth delivery of the message, great vocal melody, balanced background instrumental arrangement, naturally simple rhythm and to top it all, everything was perfectly pitched in the right proportion.
I must really commend Holt for her nice choice of music mix and adopting a sound that’s unique to her own vocal power and range, although I’d still love to hear what she will sound like when she’s doing a song that’s not in any way a low pitched song.
If you’re into those songs that always whispers reverie in the ears of its listeners or if you enjoy the musical works by Mike Oldfield, Yanni, Enigma and Enya then you probably would find this holt’s sound really interesting and a perfect drug for surrealistic music adventure.
