Review

Welcome to a gently fading twilight, as Liana Flores invites you into the world of "recently," an EP released on April 10, 2019, that beautifully mirrors the complexities of emotional struggles and self-reflection. Perfect for that golden hour where the light hangs vulnerably in the sky, each track provides a comforting embrace through its illuminating introspections on personal challenge and the relentless passage of time.

Nestled among the clouds with "rises the moon," the EP opens up to a dreamy, ethereal aura. This track's lyrics conjure images of cyclical change, grounding us with the reliable glow of the moon—always present, even amid life's chaos. Shifting gears slightly, the title track "recently" delves into the world-weariness that accompanies disconnection, gently wrapping it with thoughts of longing for escape and the healing power of companionship.

Ever thoughtful, "Papercut" and "Mother tongue" weave stories of identity and the pursuit of one's authentic voice. Through Flores's exploration, underscored by the challenge of cultural inheritance and personal truth, you're nudged to think deeply about language, family, and belonging. Finally, "try again tomorrow" stands as a profound reflection on perseverance, singing with unconditional grace about weariness and the resilient spirit required to find strength anew with each dawn.

At the heart of "recently" lies Flores's captivating voice—a vulnerable, ardent beacon supported by sparing and intimate musical arrangements. The EP becomes a delicate environment where listeners feel wrapped in both candidness and quietude, welcomed to introspection by Flores’s gentle touch. Allow yourself to carry these tender narratives into your own moments of reflection, as the subdued yet stirring compositions prompt serenity and an uplifting sense of hope. - Aurora
