“The Moon Blues” is Eventstellar’s tenth single, released worldwide through Sólir Music on July 8, 2018. The single was produced by Matt Dublin and Eventstellar, mixed by Matt Dublin, and mastered by Thor Linnane. It was recorded, mixed, and mastered between May and June 2018 at Skógafoss Studio in Reykjavik, Iceland and The Warehouse Zone in Dublin, Ireland.
With three different versions, The Moon Blues captures a meditative journey through lunar light, memory, and solitude. Inspired by the full moon’s reflection over the ocean, the single evokes a deep emotional pull toward the quiet mysteries of night, nature, and the self.
The Moon Blues is a celestial blues piece rooted in simplicity and silence. Built around the image of moonlight dancing across open water, it speaks of longing, stillness, and beauty without explanation. A sonic postcard from the space between tides.
The Moon Blues (Crescent Version), refines the original with more atmospheric detail and spatial dynamics. This version enhances the ethereal qualities of the track—where each note feels suspended in moonlight, delicate and distant, as if the stars themselves were holding their breath. It is also inspired by the crescent phase of the moon symbolizing emergence, quiet movement, and inward clarity.
The Moon Blues (Waning Version), transforms the piece into a rawer, more immersive experience. Dominated by heavy ambient pads and cosmic textures, it surrenders completely to the night. A version where clarity gives way to dream, and structure dissolves into sensation. This interpretation draws from the waning lunar phase suggesting release, descent, and the embrace of stillness.
The Moon Blues stands as a poetic pause in Eventstellar’s discography a lunar hymn that honors silence as a form of expression, and the night as a place of return.
