Varien ft. Aloma Steele – Beyond the Surface (Original Mix) [Free Download]
It’s pretty cool to see the growth of that Varien has had throughout the years I’ve been following him. From “Nights In Bangalore Pt. 2” to an side group known as Scandroid with “Salvation Code“, his production skills never cease to amaze me. For instance, Nick Pittsinger worked with Brian Tyler for Furious 7, and his music has been featured in The Walking Dead, 300: Rise of an Empire, The Purge: Anarchy, The Loft, Bones, and Face Off, to name a few.
This time around, the Tampa resident has a free download called “Beyond The Surface” featuring Canadian vocalist Aloma Steele. Though the song tends to be dark and enigmatic, the airy vocals lend a sense of comfort to the mysterious tune. A little bit future, a little bit trap, a whole lot of awesome.

Lyrics:
My stage at hand;
With guardians to keep me keenest
I understand
The limits of the timeless meanings
Love is made
For us, for them
It keeps us sane
Until the end
But what lies beyond?
I’m not made to cease
So perish the thought of
Empty visions
In this disease
We’re taught the rules of
This life’s mission
In books we’ve read
and scriptures told
The ink is spread
It’s raised in bold
But what lies beyond?
Blackened into white
Quiet in the night
Breathe into a life
Guides me to the right places
I will not allow
Settling in clouds
Drifting in the loudest
Of crowded spaces
Silence is gone
But what lies beyond?
