About the Track

“Drowncall” emerges like a whisper from beneath the tide — a ritual of sound where silence and breath merge into one.
AI vocals blend with koto and lo-fi drums, forming a misty, sacred groove that feels both ethereal and ancient.
The track evokes the spiritual pull of the ocean’s depth, a hymn for those who hear the water’s hidden voice.
It is not merely a song, but a submersion — an immersion into the spectral memory of sound itself.

Concept & Symbolism

The core symbols of this piece are “the drowned voice,” “mist,” and “indigo prayer.”
To drown is to be purified — a folkloric act of cleansing that transcends death.
Indigo represents the boundary between this world and the spiritual realm, while mist veils the truth in poetic ambiguity.
“Drowncall” becomes a call from the threshold, a voice lost and reborn through water and silence.

Hook Words Analysis

  • “Ai (藍)” — The color of the deep spirit realm; the space between death and rebirth.
  • “Kiri (霧)” — The mist that blurs truth and illusion, wrapping words in spectral quiet.
  • “Shion (潮霓)” — The sacred echo of the tide; a voice that hums from the unseen sea.

Lyrics(Original Japanese)

[Intro (koto + drums) misty groove]

[Verse 1]
瑠璃朱沙の汀 綾影揺らす囁き
藍霄の泡に 幻凭れ寄る宵
潮霓鳴り 霧織音の縁へ
絲灯誘い 深渕嗤う

[Pre-Chorus 1]
瑩ほのほの照り 袖を濡れれば
淡羅紋結ぶように
渦ゆら巡れば 影ぞ沈みて
幻抱き 息を攫われ

[Chorus 1]
磯撫 波間へ綾を紡ぐ詠
紺の揺籠へ 身を委だせば戻らぬ
淡影 泡影 綾戻せぬ祈
深い霧へ 吸い落ちて ただ藍潜む

[Verse 2]
翡翠霧の汀 紗綾揺らめく影
翠霄の息 幽霧誘いて読む宵
潮雫鳴り 朧影揺る端へ
絲霧囁き 深潭揺らう

[Pre-Chorus 2]
淡燐ひそめ 裳を揺らせば
幽羅紋揺るすように
渦縒れ揺ら 影も沈みて
幻揺り 声を奪われ

[Chorus 2]
磯撫 夜渚波を綴る詠
紺の渚へ 身を委だせば還らぬ
淡紗 泡紗 淡綾結べぬ詞
深霧へ 沈みゆきて ただ藍潜む

[Bridge]
凪を砕き 匂える影よ
袖を垂らし 呼び水の祈り
遠音潜み 言霊乱れ
声は印 夜を剥がして沁む

[Chorus 3]
磯撫 波間へ綾を紡ぐ詠
紺の揺籠へ 身を委だせば戻らぬ
淡影 泡影 綾戻せぬ祈
深い霧へ 吸い落ちて ただ藍潜む
ただ藍潜む

Artistic Commentary

The production merges spectral AI vocals with koto tones and 808 bass in ritualistic minimalism.
Each element serves as a vessel for the concept of “kotodama” — the spiritual resonance of words.
Reverb and spectral layering simulate the pressure and stillness of the ocean floor.
Through Suno AI and Studio One, the composition transforms silence into a sacred frequency.

Folklore Origin

“Drowncall” draws inspiration from the coastal spirit known as Isonade — a sea entity that brushes the shore at night.
Legends tell of voices calling from the tide, purifying the souls of the lost through ritual immersion.
This track reimagines that myth as a modern digital chant, where AI becomes the vessel of remembrance.
It is both invocation and requiem — a prayer sung from beneath the waves.
