Message To Bears, the musical alias of English composer Jerome Alexander, continues to amaze with his latest single, “Half Light”. Known for his ability to craft deeply emotional and cinematic soundscapes, he once again delivers something special with this release.
The track opens with a soft piano melody, setting a delicate and intimate tone before other elements slowly join in. The layering of instruments is impressive, with swelling trumpets, ethereal choral passages and subtle electronic textures blending seamlessly. The excellent production and mixing make every sound feel intentional and immersive.
Message To Bears explained that “Half Light” is meant to capture a moment of vulnerability and hope, where clarity begins to emerge. This intention is beautifully reflected in the music as each note and layer builds an atmosphere of reflection and emotion.
We think this new single is an absolutely stunning track. The combination of ambient and orchestral elements creates something truly captivating. Message To Bears has a unique way of making music that feels both cinematic and deeply personal. If you’re looking for a song that will transport you to another world, this is definitely worth a listen.
