‘High Blood Treasure’ slowly builds from the depths with a smooth and rather soft feeling. There is a touch of awakening energy to the track that starts to turn as the pulses of dark electronics form the pushing beats. When these synths take over the low levels of the track, they create a space of pulsing ultra-violet lights that offers a dance edge while retaining a deep darkness. As the chorus hits, higher tones meet the darkness bringing a new injection of dance energy. This comes through like a flare of pain that feeds the urge for vengeance that has been woven into the lyrics. Through this melody, you are urged to dance, but there is a lack of urgency that feeds into the darkness of the track for a seductive slide. There is a lot of nuance to the music with the different synth lines entwining together for an undulating tale that slithers into your soul. Later in the track, there is this building feeling to the beats that seem to be leading you to an explosion only for everything to drop. The moving tones rise again from the darkness leaving a strange knot in the middle of your chest.
Through all of these dark flashes, Clarin’s mesmerising vocals are sure to hypnotise with their slick slide. His voice reaches through the dancing tones carrying like a sigh in the dark. There is a velveteen feeling to his performance at times that bleeds into an unnamed dark emotion. Through the lyrics, we are treated to a tale of love, heartbreak and the need for vengeance against those who have hurt you. While the melody hits you with the darkness from the start, the angered pain builds through the vocal performance. In the chorus, there is a rush of euphoria as you give into the darker side of your emotions.
Sebastian Clarin draws you into a dark dance track through ‘High Blood Treasure’ as he packs pulsing ultra-violet lights, heartbreak and vengeance into a moving melody and hypnotic vocals.
