Ghost Weather, the artistic project created by Michael Heller, continues to gain recognition in the indie music scene with the release of his latest single, “Somewhere Underwater”.
This track dives deep into themes of self-discovery and emotional reconciliation, showcasing Heller’s talent for weaving introspective narratives with captivating melodies. “Somewhere Underwater” is a reflection of a heartfelt apology to both himself and those he may have unintentionally hurt in the past.
Heller describes the track as “an apology to myself and those around me whom I may have hurt in the past,” reflecting a desire for reconciliation and healing. This theme of introspection resonates throughout the song, creating a space for listeners to contemplate their own lives and relationships.
Heller’s musical journey began in Cincinnati, Ohio, where he started singing, playing guitar, and writing songs at a young age. By the time he was just 13, he was already producing his own music, laying the groundwork for his unique sound. Influenced by artists like Twenty One Pilots, Owl City, and The Neighborhood, Ghost Weather blends catchy pop melodies with introspective lyrics that resonate on a deeper level.
Musically, Heller combines lush synths with infectious hooks, creating a soundscape that evokes the feeling of being submerged—immersed in a blend of melancholy and hope. He masterfully captures the struggle of letting go of past mistakes while striving to embrace one’s true self.
The production quality showcases Heller’s prowess as a sound designer, with each element carefully crafted to enhance the emotional impact of the lyrics.In crafting the song, Heller employed acoustic instrument samples, warping them to create a lush synth sound.
This innovative approach reflects his ethos: the idea of destruction to create something beautiful. It mirrors the emotional journey of acknowledging past pain while striving for growth and understanding.
