f(x) member and solo artist Amber is back with two solo tracks. The song “White Noise” was released on September 20 along with “Lost At Sea,” though this time only “White Noise” received a corresponding music video.

The message in “White Noise” is about the inner fight some may have with themselves about who they are in the context of their past and future. With motivational lyrics and an upbeat melody, “White Noise” is perfect for the upcoming season.

The song starts off slow, but it changes quickly and unexpectedly as it picks up pace during the first verse and later with its EDM-heavy chorus. The beat drops just as unexpectedly, making things a little hard to follow; just when you think you know where things are headed, it surprises you yet again by going in a completely different direction.  

The music video takes us on a journey with Amber through many situations in her life. It makes use of metaphors, such as in the suitcase she’s carrying around and the one thing that’s always with her: a teddy bear. The scenes in the music video change between shots of Amber on a road or by the beach and many different performance scenes. Everything is made to match the song perfectly.

The other release, titled “Lost At Sea,” is also an EDM track, following a somewhat similar sound and style as that of “White Noise,” with a slow start and an upbeat chorus. It’s more relaxed than “White Noise,” though it does retain a few surprising elements. In “Lost At Sea,” we get to hear Amber’s rap once more, which definitely adds something extra to the song.

Amber does not hold back with these two songs. She’s not afraid to do her own thing or to take the wheel when making music, which is something we love about her. We can’t wait to see what the future has in store for the artist.
