Official music video for ‘Holy Soul’ from Salt Cathedral’s new EP ‘Oom Velt’ Following on from the delightfully spirited “Tease”, ‘Holy Soul’ offers a further taste of their forthcoming OOM VELT EP, and what it lacks in BPM it more than makes up for in it’s effervescent display of both mood and texture. Gorgeously rich vocal twist themselves around each other, repeating yearning declarations of love and lust and riding high above a dynamic bed of finger-click beats and varying instrumental tricks and tics. The subtleties seem to bubble just close to enough to the surface to truly draw the listener in.
Despite the understated nature of these imaginative fluctuations, it’s within them where Salt Cathedral really come alive. “Holy Soul” is all the more rewarding because of the discretion it shows: a delicately-crafted anthem shrouded in disguise, nuances spread across a broad canvas. It’s a captivating addition to their body of work, and they remain one of the most enticing prospects around.
