“Threads of light” is Eventstellar’s fifth single and the second official release from their debut full-length album Strangelet. Originally released on May 30, 2017 and re-released on May 30, 2025, it was produced by Manley Brown with additional production assistance by Rúnar Sigurðsson.

The recording was engineered by Sōun Kanda, mixed by Einar Solheim with assistance from Cian Solheim and mastered by Thor Linnane. Recorded from February to April 2017 at Skógafoss Studio in Reykjavik and The Warehouse Zone in Dublin.

This single continues Eventstellar’s journey into the unseen structure of the universe, reflecting on the delicate threads that bind galaxies, gravity and human meaning. It unfolds across three interconnected tracks, each exploring different dimensions of cosmic interconnection:

Threads of light opens the single with a meditation on the invisible filaments of the universe. The cosmic web that holds space and matter together. The lyrics speak of mystery and grace: “We’re held by hands we’ll never sight.” Through melodic swells and atmospheric textures, the song captures the elegance of the forces that move through the void.

Laniakea takes its name from the immense supercluster region that includes our Milky Way, where the motions of galaxies reveal a vast pattern of gravitational flows. Through slow-building dynamics and poetic lyricism, the song explores our place within this celestial landscape: “A cosmic web, a boundless sea / The great unknown, it’s calling me.” It reflects on the paradox of human insignificance and belonging within an immeasurable universe.

Laniakea (Kosmic Version) reimagines the original composition through a more ambient and immersive approach. Its tranquil, oceanic atmosphere evokes the movement of distant galaxies, blurring the poetic boundaries between sea and sky, space and self.

Together, these three compositions explore the invisible architecture of the universe and humanity’s place within it, where gravity shapes the cosmos, space is not empty and silence is never still.
