‘Ignited’ is buoyant, hopeful, and dreamy. The track’s backbone is a steady bassline meandering around hypnotic organic percussion. Arpeggiated leads flutter in and out of the groove as the textures are added and removed like tiny sonic Jenga blocks, gently rising and undulating in intensity. Raz’s vocals ring – smokey yet reverberant – across the mix, impassioned and resilient.
Raz Ohara shared: “This song is about not losing the trust in ourselves. Every challenge or lesson we need to conquer throughout life is only as hard and difficult as each individual is able to take and solve it. We are perfectly equipped for it – we need to remember and rely on this – also you need to find the right practices that can help you to stay present, healthy, and strong.”
