With „Spiral of Time“, Samuel Abelow strikes a chord that immediately feels accessible: like a quiet afternoon in Brooklyn, when the light is fading and you automatically look inward. The song comes across as quiet, almost casual, carried by open chords on the acoustic guitar, organic drums and a Stratocaster that breathes through a warm tube amp. The voice remains unadorned, with breath and grain — you feel like you’re looking into a personal notebook. Lyrically, the piece moves in the realm between longing and transformation. It explores the tension between everyday life and spirituality, between professional ambition and inner reflection, and carries a palpable depth that recalls Abelow’s interest in Jungian psychology and mystical tradition.Musically, folk melodies mix with subtle psychedelic tones; the arrangements are sparse but carefully crafted, so that warmth remains despite a slight melancholy. Particularly impressive is how technical precision and intuitive immediacy come together: Samuel plays much of it himself, leaving small imperfections in place and giving the song room to breathe. „Spiral of Time“ is not a loud outburst, but a quiet invitation to pause and reflect — a small, clear chapter in a work that organically combines painting, mysticism and music.
