Mirage, Angels (EP)
Delicate female vocal songs are layered with emotion and cloudy sonic treatments, a dream for end credits, long-form teasers or promos, or including in breakup playlists. (LMTL-052)
The new two-track EP from Amanda Huff on our LMNTL Records label doesn’t come at you head-on. Instead, it slips sideways into your headphones, letting the tension build in the spaces between lines.
Mirage and If There Are Angels are companion pieces that work less like polished pop singles and more like dispatches from the edge of intimacy… songs that feel overheard as much as performed.
“Mirage” bends itself around the gravity of temptation. The lyric—“I swore that was the last time”—repeats like a scratched groove, caught between resolve and relapse. The production keeps things blurred at the edges: tactile enough to feel the pulse, distant enough to keep you reaching. It’s a song about desire as mirage, and it manages to capture both the heat of the chase and the chill of knowing it will dissolve.
“If There Are Angels” pulls the focus tighter. It’s built on unanswered calls and rooms filled with absence… sunlight without a face, angels who never arrive. The chorus doesn’t explode so much as hover, its plea “Are you still with me” doubling as both question and accusation. There’s a spectral quality to the track, but it never drifts into the ornamental. It holds its shape with a kind of bruised clarity.
Taken together, these songs belong to a lineage of alt-pop that favors atmosphere over excess (think Billie Eilish, Imogen Heap, Annie Lennox, Sarah MacLachlan). They trade in vulnerability, but never without precision. That balance makes them useful far beyond the playlist… this is music that can hold a scene together, surprise emotionally for your next trailer or promo, underscore a character’s turning point, or carry a brand spot that wants to feel like a late-night confession instead of a sales pitch.
Mirage and If There Are Angels don’t shout their presence. They wait, patient, until you lean closer… that’s when they land.
