Sun - Zoe (Solarpunk) It’s a cinematic and spiritual landscape that Zoe paints in her latest track, “Sun”, a record from the solarpunk aesthetic movement. Zoe tells us the purpose of the record is to create and inspire a vision of a collaborative future. Even without seeing the music video (above), the song itself conjures nature—a clearing drenched in sunlight. It’s a driving instrumental, with the appearance of the drums later in the track serving to escalate the entire affair, adding urgency and tension that barrels the initially lilting song forward, like a train speeding down the track. Zoe’s lyrics preaching inclusion and abundance are delivered with an ethereal quality, incorporating folk elements that leave the impression of a poetry slam.
Best Lyric: “We think we’re better off this way.”
