Yavor Zografski, aka SMYAH, is a multidisciplinary artist based in Sofia, Bulgaria. He boasts a career as a music production teacher at Sound Ninja Academy, and the owner of the Sound In Picture multimedia label. With such a complimentary rolodex of skills, it's no wonder that his latest incoming release, Narratives, is such a significant and wide-reaching collection of tracks. As such, The Rust is incredibly excited to premiere the song "Labyrinths” ahead of the full Narratives release.

The percussion-driven backbone of “Labyrinths” creates a sense of urgency and motion, while the ethereal synths and atmospheric sounds transport the listener to a surreal and otherworldly realm. The track's intricate and evolving textures are layered with precision, creating a complex sonic landscape that reveals new elements with each listen. Use of subtle melodies and organic sounds, such as bird chirps and rustling leaves, add a touch of naturalism to the otherwise electronic composition, creating a timeless combination of organic and digital elements. The intricate interplay between these elements creates a sense of fluidity and cohesion throughout the track, allowing it to flow effortlessly from downtempo motifs to autonomic breakdowns and back again. If you're as impressed by “Labyrinths” as we are, be sure to check out the full Narratives LP on April 21, 2023, available through Sound in Picture on all major platforms.
