Sonic Exodus: The Eclipsing Echoes of Allen Kai-Lang Yu's 'Winds of Change'

Allen Kai-Lang Yu and Victor Hugo Morales have finally debuted in the musical sphere with their drama-packed new release,' Winds of Change'! After dedicating decades of years solely to refining his sound, Allen finally dropped this sensational tune compilation for the world to listen to! Released on 22nd November 2023, this 12-track venture is a collective of piano solos romanticising life and is a dedicated result of refined observation and curation of expression. Thoughtfully, the beautiful album art of a huge dandelion carries meanings of hope, resilience and healing and symbolises how all of Allen's creations are very near to his heart! Thus, these intricate details and his sound only scream 'genius'!


Allen Kai Lang-Yu

A haven of ethereal revelations, this completely washes you off reality and transforms you into a fairytale.

This galactic journey begins with the soothing piano verses of the breakthrough track,' Whispers of the Wind', A track that feels like a mellow yet content dawn, this is driven by the highs and lows of piano, creating drama. Then we enter the suspense fiesta of 'Tango Fantasia', a track that channels thrill, dogma and intensity of chaos in the wind, this one is a sheer masterpiece.


Then we witness a systematic event rundown with 'People and Traditions'. A track that almost feels like a result of mindfully keen observation, this makes you feel as if you're walking in a garden of cherry blossoms. Counter-actively expressing defeat, this single-handedly explores the levels of dissatisfaction that mankind is doomed to feel, despite being blessed with the most capabilities as thriving souls. These feelings strengthen even further with 'Fairy Tale', where the polarities of reality and a dream feel numb, as though making feel like it's all an illusion that we're soon about to wake up from.


As we progress through the man-kind descriptions of the worldly site around us, with tracks like, 'Cityscapes' and 'Pastoral River', it almost feels surreal, thereby teleporting us into another dimension of versatility.


Then, 'A Joyful Ride' feels as if we've been teleported inside the mind of a five-year-old, who's constantly trying to find a purpose and meaning behind his sensations. Progressing, a trivial moment of comfort happens within the lapse of 'A Mother's Voice.' This track seems to fill the air with vinyl care and consideration, that a child feels while being around their creator, the mother.

The world surely feels a storm with the cloudy soundscapes of 'Foggy Bay'. A moment of reflection, this metaphorically feels like a lost boat struggling to find its way out of an ocean. It's deep, retrospective and calming.'A Spiritual Walk' on the contrary feels like the content voice of trust and belief in one's mind.


As we head towards the end of the compilation,' Desert Gala' feels like a vandalizing retro affair. This track almost sounds and feels like a wave of superficiality that comes before complete clarity. Last but not least, 'Leaves in the Wind' feels like a tragic end to this leap of faith. A supposed ballad tune will automatically leave you devastated and thinking that it all ended very soon.
