Magdalia - Tunnel Vision

Music is one of the few artistic mediums where a dichotomy between the elements can elevate the artwork to new heights. Magdalia's newest single, Tunnel Vision, is a prime example of this. On one side Magdalia delivers a track that is very pop inspired whereas, on the flip side, the track is deeply emotional, forlorn & moving.

Hailing from Melbourne’s south-eastern suburb Magdalia is an artist on the rise in Australia. With Tunnel Vision listeners get to hear the next evolution of her sound. On this single Magdalia weaves dark-pop, electronic elements with profound, soulful folk-esque lyricism & storytelling.

Tunnel Vision tells the familiar story of a friend ‘taking’ from a relationship until there is nothing left. With her lyrics & storytelling Magdalia can convey a story that is very easily relatable for almost everyone. We've all been wronged within a relationship before we ultimately choose to give up on the other person.

Not only are the lyrics compelling but how Magdalia delivers them in her performance is astounding. Magdalia possesses a beautiful voice that we could easily listen to endlessly.

While the lyricism & vocals alone are engrossing what takes Tunnel Vision to the next level is the contrast provided by the song's melody & instrumentation. Layered beneath the words are electronic, synth elements that are deeply rooted in the dark-pop realm. Whereas the lyrics & vocals lean more toward the folk side the melody is much more pop-inspired creating a dichotomy that unexpectedly works in harmony.

Fans of singers such as Lorde or Taylor Swift will be enthralled by Magdalia. Tunnel Vision is a remarkable outing that leaves the listener begging for more.
