Western Cape, South Africa- based synthwave artist, Hunter As a Horse, has released an enrapturing, foreboding track of metamorphosis on her latest single, ‘Leviathan’ via Metropolis Records.
A soft murmur of an opening quickly shifts gear into measured percussive bursts to properly introduce ‘Leviathan’. Assured and relentless, this darkwave track embodies an unshakeable mettle and the air of crushing subversion.
This song is about the moment you realise the person who tried to own, break, or define you no longer has power over you. It’s not revenge, it’s transformation. It’s becoming so vast and so certain of yourself, that their shadow can’t reach you anymore. And in that moment, you become the dangerous one.”
– Hunter As a Horse musician and vocalist, Mia van Wyk
Utilizing the power of her resonant vocals and earnest intensity, Hunter As a Horse convincingly brandishes that dangerous aura she speaks of as the song unfolds. Over an industrial-rooted beat and her defined synth style, ‘Leviathan’ is shadowy, ominous, and victorious at every turn.
