Balitskiy Unveils “The Rising Sun”: A Melodic Journey from Dawn to Dusk.
Fly Over Records welcomes a new sonic sunrise with “The Rising Sun”, the latest release from Kazakhstan-born electronic music producer Balitskiy. Known for his emotionally charged soundscapes and genre-blending finesse, Balitskiy delivers a track that is as introspective as it is danceable—drawing from his deep roots and personal memories to paint a story through sound.
A Soundtrack of Sunsets and Soul
Blending the entrancing grooves of Melodic House with the earthy vibrance of Afro House, “The Rising Sun” is more than a club track—it’s a heartfelt narrative. At its core, the song captures the quiet magic of a sunset, inspired by Balitskiy’s travels from the beaches of Turkey and Egypt to the banks of his hometown Irtysh River in Pavlodar.
“This track is my memories crystallized in notes,” Balitskiy shares. “I wanted to capture the moment when the sun touches the horizon, and inside—there’s a mix of happiness and gentle sadness. ‘The Rising Sun’ is a message to the future that I’ll pass on to my son when he grows up.”
That emotion—what he describes as “joyful melancholy”—is embedded in every layer of the production. Written during a family trip to Turkey, the track took form as Balitskiy watched the sunset with his son, transforming a fleeting moment into a timeless expression.
Musical Highlights
Atmosphere: Dreamy yet grounded, the track flows with African percussion and lush melodies, evoking the golden warmth of the morning sun.
Dynamics: Beginning with a minimalist groove, it builds organically into an epic crescendo, showcasing Balitskiy’s talent for tension and release.
Emotional Tone: Balitskiy masterfully navigates major and minor transitions, reflecting the duality of light and shadow, happiness and longing.
A Rising Force in Electronic Music
