Dawn | Ry X
“Dawn,” the new album by the Australian songwriter and producer RY X (born Ry Cuming), floats in a gorgeous, dolorous haze. His voice is a pearly, androgynous tenor, a vessel for liquid melancholy that blurs words at the edges. He stretches pop structures with repetition that grows devotional, obsessive, hypnotic.

When he sings about love and desire, he places himself at a confluence of the intimate and the sacred.
