Pjos is a Poland-based artist born in Brazil who makes dreamy music that can relax and ease your mind and body. His latest release is Atlas, a short three-minute track with an emphasis on the instrumentals’ dreamlike sounds. Starting his music journey in 2023, Pjos takes inspiration from other artists such as Beach House. He focuses on the melancholic, slow vibe of music that creates a dreamscape for you to lie on.
Despite its short track time, Atlas is well-spent with the natural-sounding space synths and the airy guitar with layers of different sounds that complete the sound. Around the middle of the song, vocals start coming in with lots of reverb and echo that enhance the dreamscape this song has created even more. Towards the end, you’ll hear dialogue that resembles communication between astronauts and NASA space engineers. Together these elements create a great song that transcends space and time and leaves you in a trance. Pjos is a genre-defining artist who makes dreamy music well with his emotional soundscapes.
There are two more parts to Atlas: Atlas (Epilogue) and Atlas (Distant Dream). The epilogue is similar to the original song, but this time in collaboration with Sabrina Stachel, a Polish violinist and orchestra conductor who replicated the song through the violin, giving it a different feel. Distant Dream, on the other hand, is much like the same song but has a more distorted and intense feel.
