It is a song about the fear of dawn and the passing of the old day. <\/i><i> <\/i><i>The matches were supposed to be our short flickering lives in the dark universe and we ended up making a rhythm out of them and building a song on that rhythm. <\/i><\/p>\n<p class=\"aolmail_MsoNormal\">Andersen continues on the creation of the video clip <i> The short film accompanying the song was made by Dewi Allen from the University of South Wales, Cardiff and we loved it. We had lots of ideas on what the film should be like and he had the wisdom to ignore everything we said and do it his way. It\u2019s perfect, speaks for itself and showcases his very special talent. I hope you all agree. <\/i><\/p>\n<p class=\"aolmail_MsoNormal\"><strong>Gazpacho<\/strong> have become synonymous for their distinctive art rock that balances tense and beautiful arrangements, sinister and soulful melodic lines, <i>Soyuz<\/i> furthers their experimental output. With a holistic approach to the album writing process, imbuing each with a captivating concept &#8211; in<span style=\"color: #000000;\"> <\/span><b><i>Soyuz<\/i><\/b><i> <\/i>the concept was born from the idea of how beautiful moments pass and cannot be  saved for later, so within <b><i>Soyuz<\/i><\/b> are interconnected tales of people and lives  frozen in time. Taking inspiration from a multitude of eras and subject matters, including the doomed Russian space capsule Soyuz and its iconic captain Komarov; the Tibetan Buddhist funeral practice in  Sky Burial; the inclusion of the oldest recording of the human voice from 1860 and the Hans Christian Andersen inspired  Emperor Bespoke.<\/p>\n<div class=\"aolmail_WordSection1\">\n<p class=\"aolmail_MsoNormal\">Recorded at Krypton Planet &amp; St. Croix Fredrikstad in Norway, engineered by Thomas Andersen, Kristian Torp and Mikael Kroemer, mixed by John Rausch and mastered by Sonovo Mastering&#8217;s Thor Legvold.
