Inspired by lonely walks in lost and mystic woods, Jetlagged’s “The Pond” is introspective and translucent. In the track, Jetlagged expresses the desire for transcendence, peace, and an escape from the world. In the mist of the forest, the water sensation immerses you in with introspective finger style guitar that feels so emotionally transparent yet connecting listeners to something fundamental yet often overlooked in our lives.

The water image in “The Pond” is something worth exploring. Through Jatlagged’s soothing vocal, they explore how one single thing like the water can be both inspiring and destructive: “Drowning, suffocating. Relief, respire,” then there’s the middle ground where balance is restored and peace has returned. It’s a place with no sign of fear, free of emotions yet being so transparent and connected to the surroundings.

In Jetlagged’s music, this vision is being reborn. The soothing yet deeply emotional guitar achieves a meditative yet compassionate transparency. It seems to have seen through the pain and suffering, love and passion. It follows its own path, undisturbed from noise and the outside world, on the path of expediting, towards something mystic and inspired. The song “The Pond” itself in a way feels like a spiritual being itself. It belongs to the surroundings, to the very human experience we have on earth, at the same time, contemplating and transforming the experience.
