KOAN Sound unveiled its latest single, “Temple of Fervor,” completing the tracklist for the upcoming album, Led by Ancient Lights. The duo continues experimenting with the electronic music genre, showcasing a new collaboration between organic instrumentation and innovative electronica.
We want the album to feel like an immersive journey that transports the listener into the narrative and sonic world that we constructed.

Alongside its music, KOAN Sound has stories providing subject material for each song. Already having published thirteen chapters online, the tales form an overarching timeline, allowing listeners to picture a surreal world with actual characters.
Composed of Will Weeks and Jim Bastow, the two hope that the album will resonate with listeners and demonstrate the capacity of music to build unforgettable experiences. The absence of lyrics allows anyone to fill the blanks with personalized experiences and imagination.
“Temple of Fervor” opens with a blend of piano and cello, building a dramatic and intense mood that eventually intertwines an entrancing house beat. The sound continues to layer, including flutes and fluttering sounds, as it changes into something completely unique. The soundscape encapsulates the upcoming album and its narrative duality, seamlessly bridging the gap between the raw power of traditional instruments and the otherworldly resonance of electronic music.
KOAN Sound recently took to Instagram to share their appreciation for all the love and support they’ve received since the album’s release. They seemed to imply there was more to come, and so much more they wanted to try as artists. Fans can stay up-to-date by following the journey on Instagram, as well as checking out the rest of its work on Spotify.
