The haunting hollowness of the guitar wailings on 'Flight' is unlikely to get washed away from your mind hard as you may try. There's a magical purity to the guitar notes here and an ambiguity which is quite charming as well. Is this electric guitar being coaxed into sounding acoustic or is this acoustic guitar coming off all steely and electrified? Flight is an intriguing piece of instrumental work with the artist displaying experimental guitar playing of a rarefied nature.
Hawkwise is a one-man project with acoustic guitars forming the backbone of the sound. His listed influences include Nick Drake Pink Floyd and Tangerine Dream. The Pink Floyd reference really hits home because there's an unmistakable 'Wish you were here' feeling to Flight. Perhaps it's in the way the crisply stroked guitar notes seem to linger in the air for just so long. Maybe it's in the way the various notes unite in one melodic confluence. Hard to put a finger on really.
The only point of contention on this song would be the muted incomprehensible vocal treatment. While some of you might find it distracting do try and hold it up against the overall flow of the track. The intermittent voices in the background do bring about a sense of drama and seem to work quite nicely with the sharp guitar right up-front.
That being said and done Flight by Hawkwise is one journey you're going to want to take
