In the scene where substance and soul is often overlooked, there are several gems that shine to make you feel beyond the usual shallow surface. Plàsi’s latest EP Camino is one of those gems, offering five tracks that are warm, organic, and very human.
It is evident how much passion and creativity Plàsi poured on to every piece curated in this EP. Every track feels intimate, deeply personal and almost solemn. Camino feels like a breath of fresh air and here’s why you should closely listen to this masterpiece.
Father’s Eyes starts off with soft beats and pluckings that gently knock on your emotions, patiently waiting for you to open your door and hear the things it’s about to say. The song progresses like a conversation that was long overdue, like a quiet reconciliation translated into a melody with vocals that will make you spiral into a place you once walked away from — a home that cradled and bruised you at the same time.
Right from the first listen, I knew it was going to bring tears I’ve been holding off for a while. It’s like a quiet realization that it’s hard to detach ourselves from the roots of misery when it was planted in the wounds of our parents’ hearts, it’s all the pain they continued to bear that unknowingly sustained our own. I love how you can clearly hear and feel both sides from the recurring lyric “there are things in you that I feel too”. Plàsi successfully integrated acoustic elements for that grounded feeling in this focus single, narrating something personal as a shared experience for most of us.
After making you tear up with Father’s Eyes, Waiting for Signs wraps and comforts you with its gentle hums. The lyric “maybe life is just in front of me now” is so well-thought out, how most of the time we search and ask for signs without even realizing what’s real and present is right in front of us. This track is a personal favorite, it’s deep and grounded.
Efiga comes crashing in like waves, an emotional turmoil disguised in tender tones and rhythm. The title “Efiga” means “I left”, and Plàsi did not disappoint with his first song in Greek. The layers of the song feels like unearthing one’s heart and slowly finding pieces of regret buried away from the surface. If you’ve ever once walked away from someone only to find yourself longing for their presence, Efiga captures that dilemma when you’ve realized you made the wrong choice.
Heights will carry you on a journey up the hill with the experimental and storytelling nature of indie folk music. The harmonies transcends you to higher places while you try to find meaning and connection with its depth, it’s expansive and introspective in the best way.
Camino ends the EP on a warm note after going through waves of emotions and inner struggles. Named after the Spanish word “path”, the track feels like a tap on your shoulder after a long day. Camino ties all the tracks together, offering that chill sun-soaked vibes from laid-back whistles and loose tropical beats that amplifies its message more. It’s a warm expression of liberty, an assurance that we can always pursue our own paths.
Overall, this latest release from Plàsi is more than just an EP, it’s a much-needed curation of songs that’s crafted intricately to celebrate courage, self-discovery, and freedom. If you want your music gentle, deep, and empathetic, Plàsi’s Camino is made solely for you.
