YetepWhen Forester joins forces with Petit Biscuit and adds production credits from Kasbo and Rustborne, you can bet the result will hit somewhere between dream and dopamine. “Close Your Eyes” isn’t just a track—it’s a full-body immersion into lush sonic atmospheres, a cascading soundscape made to elevate any sunrise set or late-night headphone escape.
From the very first measures, the track unfurls like a breath held too long. Ambient pads stretch wide across the stereo field, bathed in reverb and haloed by a distant, pulsing texture that feels like a heartbeat under water. There’s a sonic intimacy in the way the instrumentation begins: minimal, warm, and wrapped in natural textures—soft percussive clicks, lo-fi synth drones, and field-recording-like ambiance that gives the impression of being somewhere far away.
Forester’s signature indie-electronic blend weaves effortlessly with Petit Biscuit’s flair for melodic minimalism. The topline is carried by a glowing synth lead, soft yet deliberate, moving like a sunrise across a foggy skyline. It’s the kind of sound that blurs the line between nostalgia and novelty. Then the vocal hits—delicate, processed just enough to shimmer—and it feels like a personal confession whispered over the track’s airy heartbeat. Auto-tuned just lightly, with a dry/wet blend that keeps the vocal hovering in its own atmosphere, it adds human depth without disturbing the dream.
Kasbo’s production fingerprint becomes clear when the beat hits. It’s clean and emotional, his trademark use of sidechained textures, layered kicks, and snare hits that snap gently into the groove. Rather than dominating the track, the beat supports the vibe, allowing the melodic elements to breathe. It’s future bass without the brashness, chillwave with more clarity.
The drop isn’t an explosion—it’s a gentle swell. Filtered saw synths rise into the mix, sculpted with precision and then released into wide open space. It’s a non-traditional payoff, focused more on feeling than force. The percussion grows more complex: tight hi-hats, ambient shakers, and soft-clipped snares building momentum without breaking the trance.
Rustborne’s touch brings in subtle, atmospheric grit—slightly warped textures that flutter at the edges of the mix, almost imperceptible but giving the track its depth and character. The low end is rich but not overpowering. The bass is more sub-driven than mid-focused, giving your chest a soft thump without stepping on the melodic lines.
“Close Your Eyes” feels like a modern lullaby for ravers—built on trust, emotion, and that unspoken connection between sound and spirit. It’s festival-ready yet personal, massive yet restrained. This is the kind of track that belongs equally at golden hour sets in the desert or through noise-canceling headphones on a solo nighttime drive. It doesn’t beg to be danced to—it invites you in, slowly, warmly, deeply.
If this collaboration is a sign of what’s to come from Forester, Petit Biscuit, and the producers behind the boards, we’re stepping into a new wave of emotionally intelligent dance music where introspection and euphoria finally shake hands.
