Hidden Light is the latest album release from Swedish Inde pop artist David Åhlén. The album contains eight low key songs that all carries that mystical sacred feeling that is so recurring for everything that David touches. The album was released on September 22 at the brink of autumn and the whole recording contains a shimmer of fall. The crispy vocals and the quiet backing brings a longing for departure. To leave, to find this concealed light that's disclosed in the metaphorical and theologically saturated lyrics. The title track Hidden Light is a beautiful song that slowly grows in strenght throughout its three minutes. It contains all the best parts of Davids artistry such as the repetative vocals, an interesting melody and also (which really pops out on this record) a really likeable brass section. One of Weekly Indie Pops favourite albums this year.
