Lavara – Alone by Night (2021)

Distance is something that can easily kill the connection you have with someone. With the chilled vibes and sharp synths of ‘Alone by Night’, Lavara is delving into this loss. Through the music, he touches on the feeling of loss while reminding us that the love for the person remains. This forms into an understanding that things have fundamentally changed and will never be the same again.

With dreamy vocals, Bruno Levesque, the many behind the music, brings a stirring of emotions to your ears. After releasing an EP in 2020 and two singles earlier this year, he has poured his passion for music into this track. Recorded in his home studio, he did everything from writing to mastering allowing his unique touch to shine.



‘Alone by Night’ clicks and waves into your senses through the opening. There is a heavy layer of ambient synths that create a dreamy and hazy feeling to the single. While the beats pound into your chest, they combine with the synths for a really chilled movement. There is something quite decadent about the melody as it drips with richness. The synths do have a sharp edge that offers a clear burst of sound but this doesn’t detract from the overall chilled vibes of the music.

The dreamy and hazy feeling of the melody is bolstered by the vocals which float over you. The vocal delivery is wonderful as it moulds and shapes itself over the movement of the melody. When the beats pound, Lavara’s vocals stomp to match only to flow into a misty dreamy state to ride the ambient synths. While you dip into the richness of the single, the lyrics bring a feeling of change to your brain. There is a longing for someone who is far away tempered by feeling love for them. This is covered in a light dusting of loss which is a delightful combination of emotions.

Lavara stirs up emotions while dipping into a decadent and rich soundscape in ‘Alone by Night’. The movement of the music has an overall chilled vibe which is complemented by the sharp synths and pounding beats. Lavara’s vocals flow around the movement of the music to enhance the vibes and bring the emotions of the single to life.
