Heart-Aching Melodies: STAR SEED and Josh Rubin’s “Point Of No Return”

American electronic music producer STAR SEED has teamed up with singer-songwriter and producer Josh Rubin, known as the duo Abandoned, to release a poignant breakup ballad titled “Point Of No Return.” This single, which is now available via Heaven Sent, beautifully merges different sonic worlds to create a stunning piece that lingers long after the last note fades away.

A Cinematic Collaboration

“Point Of No Return” represents the first collaboration between STAR SEED and Abandoned, and it most definitely sets the bar high for future joint efforts. The melodic dubstep track is constructed with a rich tapestry of emotive vocals, expansive synth patterns, and intricate bass design. Each element combines seamlessly to form a high-impact experience that speaks to both personal heartbreak and cinematic grandeur.

The Emotional Arc

The song unfolds like a slow-burning narrative, encapsulating the grueling emotional aftermath of a relationship that has unraveled. The lush and melancholic vocals are at the heart of the track, delivering lyrics that resonate deeply with anyone who has experienced the fracturing of love. The production mirrors this emotional depth, transitioning through tranquil synthwave passages steeped in ambiance before erupting into electrifying dubstep drops, characterized by heavy horns that drive the emotional weight home.

The unexpected pivot towards a fleeting psytrance outro adds a unique twist to the piece. It serves less as a closure and more as an escape—an invitation for listeners to delve into their own journeys beyond the pain.

The Creative Process

Reflecting on the journey to create this track, Abandoned shares the significance of the collaboration: “‘Point of No Return’ represents that moment where emotion takes over, and there’s no turning back. Working with STAR SEED allowed us to blend psytrance energy with melodic bass in a way that feels both intense and deeply emotional. Heaven Sent felt like the perfect home for a record this immersive.”

STAR SEED echoes this sentiment, elaborating on the painstaking three-year process spent fine-tuning the track. “This track was so much fun to make. Abandoned and I have worked on this track for three years before we knew the direction it was meant to take. The vocals acted as the cherry on top allowing us to wrap this track up the way it was supposed to be!”

Abandoned: A Musical Journey

For Abandoned, the release marks a return to the Heaven Sent label following their 2022 single “Tides.” With a reputation firmly established through collaborations with artists like MitiS and Nurko, Abandoned has carved out a niche within the melodic bass landscape. Their ability to tell a story through symphonic melodies has garnered them substantial recognition, including support from major industry figures like ILLENIUM and ARMNHMR.

“Point Of No Return” channels the duo’s melodic lineage into a darker, more atmospheric framework—one that accentuates the nuances of emotional experiences.
