Tish\u2019s rock-solid acoustic bass and my quasi \u2018pink floyd\u2019 inspired guitar lines support, without distracting, letting Ashton\u2019s words and melody take the starring role!\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>This new stunning rendition offers a delicate and emotional take on the song\u2019s&nbsp;<a rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/youtu.be\/UcRyVkAlCLE\"><strong>original version<\/strong><\/a>&nbsp;(the closing track on&nbsp;<strong><a rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"http:\/\/www.beautyinchaosmusic.com\/music-store\">&#8216;Dancing With Angels&#8217;<\/a><\/strong>). Directed by&nbsp;<strong><a rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/industrialismfilms.com\/\">Vicente Cordero (Industrialism Films)<\/a><\/strong>, the warm endearing video was filmed by Fernando Cordero and edited by&nbsp;<strong>Ryan Conlon<\/strong>. &nbsp;Michael Ciravolo shares \u201cAs always, we strive to make the new video drastically different from its predecessor, and the simple \u2018lounge\u2019 setting seemed fitting for this intimate track, certainly a polar opposite to the bombastic sonic and visual overload of \u201cHollow\u201d, and as usual, Vicente helped bring this vision to life!\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>&#8220;&#8216;Made Of Rain&#8217; is a song of hope. It is about getting up and trying again despite the scars life can leave. This &#8220;almost acoustic version&#8221; is very dear to me. I love the organic elements present: the pedal steel, violin, and, of course, Whitney Tai&#8217;s beautiful, ethereal voice elevate this piece, making it something transcendental. Similarly, the video shoot was an almost spiritual experience. A celebration of friends and art. What more can you ask for?\u201d asks&nbsp;<strong>Ashton Nyte<\/strong>&nbsp;of&nbsp;<a rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/theawakening.com\/\"><strong>The Awakening<\/strong><\/a>, who will soon tour Europe in support of the band&#8217;s&nbsp;<a rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/theawakening.com\/store\"><strong>self-titled album<\/strong><\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cMade Of Rain\u201d is a warm amber glow in a velveteen speakeasy where tales of folk and longing send a message from the beyond. There\u2019s a wisdom and a patience in Ashton\u2019s voice. His lyrics swarmed in the magic of Beauty In Chaos\u2019 production for the acoustic version hits different. Doing this duet with Ashton is a dream, as he is someone with the vocal tenacity of the wisest tree in the forest. Together, it felt like we planted wildflowers in a gentle field. What made this collab special for me apart from the music is the friendship that Michael, Ashton and I share. We are family and making art with feeling is at the forefront of our passions,&#8221; says&nbsp;<a rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"http:\/\/www.whitneytai.com\/\"><strong>Whitney Tai<\/strong><\/a>, who appears on many BIC tracks.
