Light from the abyss: Miss FD unleashes Waves Of Time
With ‘Waves Of Time’, Miss FD serves up a dose of synth pop and EBM that's exactly what I want from contemporary electronic music: danceable and atmospheric, with a dark, almost eerie touch. Her self-proclaimed goth pop aesthetic is once again right up my alley, making this track a real contender for my Halloween party playlist. The synth sounds are typical Miss FD: spooky and extremely creepy, yet pleasantly dynamic and never too intrusive. For me, that's where the strength lies – the balance between club-readiness and dark mood is perfectly struck.
As for the aesthetics of the music video, I personally immediately notice the clear, modern look. The locations in particular make the video seem much higher quality and more professional to me than many of Miss FD's earlier green screen recordings. I really like this development and it reinforces my overall impression of the song.
Lyrically, ‘Waves Of Time’ delves into themes such as memories, light and the discovery of deeper layers of oneself. When Miss FD sings about "light from the abyss" and "awakening under the moonlight", I feel drawn in – as a fan of the scene, these motifs strike a chord with me.

Lyrics of "Miss FD – Waves Of Time"
source of all creation
force that brings all of life into being
I am watching for the signs
unearth our memories
of who we are and whom we’ve been
for the whispers
I am listening
unearth the waves of time
unearth the waves of time
the keys we have been given
to heart, to soul, to mind
from chaos into consciousness
from the abyss into the light
light… light… light… light…
light… light… light… light…
light… light… light… light…
light… light… light… light…
light… light… light… light…
light… light… light… light…
light… light… light… light…
unearth the waves of time
unearth the waves of time
I’m awakening
under the moonlight
from this amnesia
as I’m guided by your light
I’m remembering
full moon rising in the sky
illuminating earth, ocean, past
unearth the waves of time
unearth the waves of time
the keys we have been given
to heart, to soul, to mind
from chaos into consciousness
from the abyss into the light
the keys we have been given
to heart, to soul, to mind
from chaos into consciousness
from the abyss into the light
