A soulfully captivating single from The KYN and Halle Tomlinson, “It’s The Way” moves with atmospheric intrigue and enthralling vocal flourishes — with Tomlinson’s moody vocals complemented by an array of vibe-y instrumentation and backing vocal effects. Tomlinson and Denver-based collective The KYN dazzle with “It’s The Way,” which straddles a beautiful line between hypnotic dreaminess and heart-tugging emotion.

“It’s the way that you kiss me and say my name,” Tomlinson’s vocals open amidst twinkling piano and seductive rhythmic pulses. Chilly organs inject a solemn immersion as Tomlinson’s vocals urge to “just stick to the plain,” conjuring a late-night drive through references to headlights and the road ahead. “It’s the way that I feel, the weight of what’s real,” Tomlinson’s riveting vocals continue, with the “drive to you day and night” multi-layered vocal punch bolstering the already-enchanting soundscape.

A bass-y “way that you kiss me” vocal sequence kickstarts a fully satiating conclusion. The various vocal layers here maintain a debonair allure, culminating in a final vocal send-off with eerie, spacey synth vibrations. “It’s The Way” consumes from start to finish, stirring as a standout soulful pop success from The KYN and Halle Tomlinson.
