Song Review - Born

Born

by Sharn

I had a realisation when I hit play on this track. It’s part of the reason I keep writing here, because I don’t always get a lot of time in the madness and repetition of day to day life, but I love looking for new music in the desperate hope I’ll hear something that sparks a little something, a little something that makes me sit down and type a bunch of words in the hope someone else hears the same thing I have. It’s with this in mind I am writing words about Sharn, an electronic artist from New Zealand who has released a beautiful selection of words and sounds in ‘Born’, a track about life and death and everything outside that and everything in between, a track that journeys from soul to dance to electronica to pop and back again. It’s a perfect musical journey, perfectly dance-y for those who wish to and perfectly meaningful for those who look for a little more. Songs like this one are a perfect realisation and a sweet reminder to remember what I love - music and the search for it - and to pay attention to that love, which in itself is what Sharn is creating music about, life and all its meanings, whatever they may be.
