Signal Over Rye
Psychedelic experimental Ukrainian ethnic color rock with driving trance-rock pulse, broken hand percussion, and a hypnotic mid-tempo groove; verse rides misty modal guitar and dry drum hits; pre-chorus lifts with bandura-like plucks and stacked vocal lines; chorus opens into soaring group chants and tom-heavy propulsion. Lead vocal stays close-mic and earthy, with doubled hooks, echo throws, and handclap gang responses. Reversed swells, distant radio chirps, and chime sparkles between phrases. Wide, vivid, and sunlit in the mix., steady, rock, trance, experimental

Lyrics
Verse 1
Morning settles on the river
Mist lifts off the rye
A distant signal crossing water
The tower blinks an eye
Bandura strings in the distance
Shiver through the haze
And the day steps out to meet us
In a golden, breathing way
Pre-Chorus
May your signal stay clear
May your path stay bright
May your fire burn steady
Through the edge of night
May the current keep moving
May the grain remember
We are born from the crossing
We are bound together
Chorus
Keep the signal alive
Keep the signal alive
Let it cut through the foam
Let it lead us home
Keep the signal alive
Keep the signal alive
Morning in our hands
Wonder in the wires
Verse 2
Rye bends under open weather
Water holds the sky
Every ripple takes a message
Every breath replies
Somewhere past the quiet static
Someone hears us sing
Like a spark inside the distance
Like a hidden ring
Pre-Chorus
May your songs find their path
May they reach the shore
May the dark turn gentle
At the sound of more
May the river remember
Every step we gave it
If the night comes looking
Let our voices save it
Chorus
Keep the signal alive
Keep the signal alive
Let it cut through the foam
Let it lead us home
Keep the signal alive
Keep the signal alive
Morning in our hands
Wonder in the wires
Bridge
Tell me, can you hear it?
Underneath the blue
Every old good omen
Coming back to you
Fire on the water
Gold inside the rain
We were made for this crossing
Calling through the grain
Final Chorus
Keep the signal alive
Keep the signal alive
Let it cut through the foam
Let it lead us home
Keep the signal alive
Keep the signal alive
May our rivers remember
May our mornings arrive
