Canada-based independent artist and music producer Aileé Zaga has recently made available for streaming her debut doom metal track "Godess Of The Dawn". Like many artists, Aileé Zaga has struggled with self-doubt, loneliness, and anxiety in the pursuit of her dreams, but she always knew there was more on the other side of that struggle. The beginning of 2020 initiated a domino effect that led her to the creation of her latest track, “Goddess Of The Dawn”, which will be officially out on the 7th of January 2022, and to a monumental shift in her confidence.
When you hear a title such as “Goddess Of The Dawn”, you probably picture a beautiful morning scene with the golden light of the sun peeking out from behind a hill, but this music is very dark. That morning scene is a resolution, and the story Aileé Zaga is telling is what happens before dawn. As human beings, the greatest obstacle we are constantly battling is within ourselves. We are constantly fighting our darkness, our insecurities, and our self-doubt; constantly holding ourselves back. This piece is about owning all parts of who you are and stepping into your power. Not only recognizing you have greatness within you but trusting that you are capable of amazing things.
“This release represents the shift that occurred in me when I started to firmly believe in myself and recognize what I was capable of”, Aileé shares. “This piece is about owning all parts of who you are and stepping into your power as a woman. It’s about overcoming your inner battles.”
Stylistically, this song was inspired by soundtracks. Aileé Zaga had been working on a music commission for an audio play where the client had asked for eerie, ominous music to accompany horror and action scenes. At the same time, she had been experimenting with new sample libraries and production techniques to create ghostly atmospheres and raw textures. You can listen to "Godess Of The Dawn" below. Recommended for fans of Anna von Hausswolff, Chelsea Wolfe, Darkher, Mrs. Piss and Zola Jesus. Link
