October’s Child – Falling Sky

“Falling Sky” (by October’s Child) depicts the place daydreamers go to escape reality, which is often an endless stream of existential questions and fantasy scenarios. The musical soundscape is the trance you fall under when surrendering to this meditative state. It’s about being in touch with love, loss, and what this life means to you as an individual.
