Debut album from Thexele

Thexele‘s new debut full-length album Music from the Soul is a beautifully crafted collection of compositions that evoke a range of emotions in the listener. The Melbourne-based artist’s passion for music is evident in every track of this self-produced record, which is aimed at providing aesthetic pleasure and a new spiritual and emotional experience to the listener.

The album features a mix of old and new, living and artificial, light and heavy, and light and dark elements, reflecting the complexities of life. Thexele’s unique sound combines elements of lounge music, ambient, lo-fi and electronic pop music, resulting in a dreamy sound that you not only hear, but feel deeply. The tracks are characterised by soft melodies and a range of moods and styles, from dreamy and inspirational to spiritual and meditative.

One of the most interesting tracks on the album is “Lunar tenderness”, which Thexele composed when she was just 14 years old. The main melody and harmony of the song have been reworked and developed by the artist and the end product is a graceful piano-driven track that transports the listener to a magical world.

The album’s instrumental compositions are particularly notable for their ability to evoke strong emotions and create a sense of peace and relaxation. Tracks like “Daydreaming with Me” and “Insight” feature delicate piano melodies and gentle instrumentation that allow the listener to sink into a state of deep contemplation, the latter also involving Thexele’s subtly soaring voice serving as an instrument in it’s own right.

Thexele’s vocals are featured on a few tracks, including opening song “Sunrise Time” and “Inspirational Way”, and her voice is a standout element of the album. Her singing style is expressive and emotional, and she has a gift for creating harmonies and vocalisations that add depth and texture to the music.

Overall, Music from the Soul is a captivating debut album from Thexele, showcasing her talents as a composer, singer, and producer. It’s a deeply personal and introspective work that invites the listener to journey with the artist into the depths of the soul. The album is a testament to Thexele’s passion for music and her dedication to creating beautiful art that touches the heart and soul. Check out Thexele’s website here.

Commenting on the album, she shares, “I started producing music for this album and publishing individual tracks on Soundcloud (unofficially) about seven years ago. And by the way, most of the compositions fell on the period of my pregnancy. It was one of the most inspiring and beautiful periods of my life. Through creativity, I always wanted to share something very important with the world, to create a mood, but most importantly, this music came from the heart. Therefore, the name of the album perfectly reflects its essence.”
