LVNDR.SOUND, In The Dark Review

by Eliana Fermi

LVNDR.SOUND’s latest single, “In The Dark,” blends immersive soundscapes with deeply personal lyrical themes. As a fast-rising livetronica trio, LVNDR.SOUND—comprised of Geoff Bremer, Josh Fairman, and Jay Greens—has steadily made a name for themselves with their unique fusion of genres. This track, the fourth single from their upcoming sophomore album In The Dark, features well-crafted musical textures, a vocal-centric approach, and refined storytelling.

At its core, “In The Dark” is about overcoming life’s darkest moments. The song opens with an atmospheric blend of synths and organic acoustic guitar. The production is balanced and well-placed within the soundstage, drawing the listener in with its layered textures and subtle shifts in dynamics that mirror the song’s themes of struggle and growth. Green’s vocal adds a raw vulnerability to the track, as he admits that stepping into the role of singer was exciting and nerve-racking. His voice, paired with the live-recorded chorus, adds a human touch to the otherwise electronic-heavy composition, emphasizing the song’s emotional core.

“In The Dark” displays LVNDR.SOUND’s ability to blend electronic elements with live instrumentation. This fusion brings interest and warmth into the track, grounding its futuristic beats with a tangible warmness that invites the listener to hear and feel the music. The trio’s background as musicians is evident in the careful layering of electronic and acoustic sounds, creating a space where the synthetic and the organic coexist harmoniously. This signature blend of future bass, electro-soul, and nu-age funk reflects LVNDR.SOUND’s broader sonic vision, one that defies easy categorization but resonates deeply with listeners.

Thematically, “In The Dark” delves into adversity. As Jay Greens explains, the song—and the album as a whole—explores the process of emerging from life’s darkest moments stronger, more creative, and more confident. This message of resilience is universal, and LVNDR.SOUND’s ability to weave it into their music makes “In The Dark” not just a dance track but an anthem for personal growth and empowerment.

“In The Dark” follows a string of previous singles, including “Never Found” ft. Halle Tomlinson and “You Must Think” and “All Night” ft. Gordo Flea, all of which share a common thread of introspection and transformation. LVNDR.SOUND’s journey as artists mirrors the message of their music: they are constantly evolving, exploring new sonic territories, and pushing themselves to reach new creative heights. In addition the album will feature collaborations with Perception Records artists Halle Tomlinson and Gordo Flea to further enhance the album’s emotional resonance

As LVNDR.SOUND prepares to release their sophomore album, “In The Dark” stands as a track that challenges the listener to reflect on their own dark moments and find the strength to move forward, all while losing themselves in the trio’s signature blend of electronic innovation, warm natural instruments, and heartfelt storytelling. LVNDR.SOUND is poised to impact the electronic music world, offering a refreshing take on what it means to create music that moves the body and the soul.
