Ladel is the second single of the EP Album called L2O by BossOla. This UK based band that stands out with their enchanting sound, gives a mesmerizing and meditative feel to the listener. The most lively voicings and chords are played on the guitar, along with minor tones, which carry the song. It portrays a slow and melancholic background at the inception. Slightly distorted and crunchy guitars gives character to the music and the progressions used permeates an avant ambient atmosphere. As the synth starts playing under the guitars, and the vocals begin, the listener is instantly transported to an ethereal place. The song carries on from there, through different emotions, while constantly clinging to the sadness. As the song progress, the synth comes to be more emphasised and the ever so slight touch of percussion outlines the melody.
The vocal lines ring soundly in the listeners ears, as the distinct samples used creates an air of mystery. Further, the synth notes in the background grips the listener in tension and resolves the melody throughout the song. The song ends with a confluence of these elements with layers of vocal samples. It fills the canvas to create an elegant soundscape. Lyrical part of the song is as abstract as the song itself, narrating a story of a distant memory. The minimalistic yet alluring tone of the song is one that leaves the listener in a daze, reminiscing a time that once was. Anyone who enjoys experimenting with genres and experiencing a truly genuine and organic sound will enjoy this song.
