„Universe“ is the third single from The Valery Trails‘ upcoming album Winter Palace, which will be released on Bandcamp on 29 August and on all streaming platforms on 12 September. The song has sparkling guitars and gleaming chimes, these create an atmosphere reminiscent of clear night skies and endless expanses. Musically, „Universe“ builds on a light, bouncy groove: jangling guitar runs intertwine with bright arpeggios, while the restrained percussion creates space for the arrangement to breathe. The production feels transparent and organic, so that every sound sparkles and conveys a certain weightlessness. The composition is characterised by a pronounced lyricism, with the piece as a whole presenting a clear self-portrait against the backdrop of cosmic infinity. The narrator accepts their insignificance and draws on it to create an inner moral compass. It acts out of self-imposed responsibility, not out of greed for recognition, and focuses on hidden truths in order to shed light on the darkness – even if its own power is limited. With Winter Palace, The Valery Trails demonstrate a new maturity: the album promises quiet spaces and intense moments in which art reveals deep truths. „Universe“ is a quiet companion for listeners who seek orientation in the vastness and find peace in music.
