“Suffocating Swan” - Melting Phase

Every now and then, a song comes along that doesn’t just ask to be heard—it demands you stop, sit in silence, and let it take you somewhere uncomfortable. Suffocating Swan, the latest single from Istanbul’s rising experimentalist Melting Phase, is exactly that kind of track. It’s not background music. It’s not Spotify fodder. It’s a fierce, allegorical meditation on life’s crushing weight, dressed in sonic textures that are as suffocating as they are strangely beautiful.
