Under the name Sova, Sophia Vastek continues to broaden her creative universe, exploring new textures and embracing a more collaborative approach while preserving the intimate sensitivity that defines her work. —R+

“Heavy Shit” unfolds as a deeply immersive and cinematic experience, built on a delicate combination of neoclassical and contemporary elements… Sophia’s talent on the piano is exquisite, while the string and percussion arrangements enrich the musical narrative and reinforce the emotional impact of the work. 
—Expansion Radial
