Transcendent and exquisitely produced, Walking Through Walls reveals AUNCE as a force of sonic beauty.
AUNCE releases "Walking Through Walls," and it blew us away, but not in the traditional sense. This isn’t a song designed for dance floors or grandiose, imposing musical arrangements. It moves differently. It sits with you. We quickly realized this track is less about performance and more about sensation, about what it draws out of you in stillness. "Walking Through Walls" is a quiet, deliberate invitation inward. It takes you into the kind of headspace we rarely access in our daily lives.
The song opens with what feels like a dynamic movement of sound, not a traditional rhythm or beat, but something more elemental. The notes seem to shift locations, as though they are propelled by the wind, floating just out of reach but always close enough to feel. Listening with over-ear headphones, the track blocks out everything else: ambient noise, stray thoughts, even visuals. It becomes a full sensory reset, a cold and fresh beginning that feels like stepping into an unknown but peaceful landscape.
Then, AUNCE’s voice enters and it is simply breathtaking. There’s something so soft yet so undeniably powerful in her delivery, a quiet confidence that resonates on a cellular level. This is the essence of AUNCE. She exists in a completely different emotional and intellectual dimension. Her voice isn’t just a melodic tool; it is a transmission. With her deep musical background, which includes a PhD in Music Production and years of collaboration across genres and disciplines, she doesn’t just use sound. She guides it, shapes it, and directs it with intention. Sound becomes something spiritual in her hands. It becomes a force that brings harmony, intimacy, and deep connection.
It is because of this intentionality that we, the listeners, can fully relax into the experience. That initial "cleanse" created by the sonic movement and stillness clears a path for what comes next. By the time we reach the midpoint of the track, we are no longer anchored in the world around us. The music transforms from motion into emotion. It begins to feel like the slow and mesmerizing descent of the sun at golden hour, casting light through the clouds in a way that only nature and certain songs can. The notes become indistinguishable from light itself. They twinkle not just as sound, but as sensation.
What became increasingly clear as the track continued was how much we longed for the return of the lyrics and how powerfully they had imprinted on us. We kept hearing them in our minds:
"I’m walking through walls / I’m attracted to the light inside / I’m walking through walls / Like there ain’t no underlying science / The wind gets whipped up around you / Just because it can."
These words didn’t just stick; they transformed. They felt like a metaphor for transcendence, the idea of moving from this world into the next. We began to wonder if this is what crossing over feels like. Not death, but transformation. A release. An ascension. A clarity. The song became more than music. It became a portal.
AUNCE has once again led us to an emotional and spiritual place we didn’t know existed until she showed it to us. That is the magic of her work. If your expectations for music are rooted in breaking barriers, in dismantling the noise of the world and replacing it with deep feeling and truth, this track will stay with you. You will favor it, adore it, and return to it. It is more than a song. It is a moment of awakening.
What elevates this release even further is the exceptional quality of its creative execution. The track was written and performed by Anna Edith Daly Edgington, known professionally as AUNCE, a vocalist, composer, beat maker, and producer who fully embodies her moniker, and Chris Hyson, whose collaboration is seamless and deeply resonant. The production was led by Edgington herself, with co-production by Hyson. The vision feels both deeply personal and universally resonant. The mix by TJ Allen brings out every detail with precision, clarity, and space. The mastering by Guy Davie gives the track that final breath of life, ensuring that nothing is lost and everything is felt. Just when you think the track has hit its peak, the production gently lifts it further. The engineering is restrained but bold, and every choice made by this team seems rooted in one thing: truth. The vocals rise with crystalline clarity. The instrumentation remains immersive without ever overwhelming. The overall balance feels more like a finely tuned emotional experience than a mixdown.
We didn’t just listen to "Walking Through Walls." We were elevated by it and transported by it. We believe you will be too. Open your mind. Let go of the world you know. Give yourself the gift of this experience. You won’t regret it. You’ll wonder how you ever existed without it.
