With a whisper of piano and vocals suspended in an almost surreal atmosphere, “Somnambulist” marks a haunting and intimate new chapter for Mifarma, the genre-bending project of New York-based artist Danielle Alma Ravitzki. Set against an ambient soundscape that feels both cinematic and deeply internal, the track explores the liminal space between waking life and unconscious emotion—a slow drift through trauma, dissociation, and the recesses of memory.

Crafted with meticulous sensitivity, “Somnambulist” opens in near silence before a sparse piano motif emerges, composed by Ella Joy Meir. What follows is a quiet unraveling: vocals echo with restrained vulnerability, as though voiced from within a dream or a distant room. The result is a sonic meditation on what it means to be physically present yet emotionally elsewhere—a spectral reflection on the mind’s instinct to protect, bury, and forget.

Produced by Carmen Rizzo, a two-time Grammy nominee known for his innovative cross-genre collaborations, the single blends elements of ambient electronica, contemporary classical, and alternative art-pop. The production is subtle but intentional, framing Ravitzki’s voice in an atmosphere of ghostly textures and restrained tension. “Somnambulist” serves as the second single from her upcoming album Mifarma, following the critically noted “I Left the Room Without My Hair,” and continues to trace the album’s narrative arc of transformation and self-reckoning.

Long known for her poetic Hebrew-language releases, Ravitzki’s shift into English songwriting marks more than a linguistic transition—it’s an emotional excavation. Her approach is literary yet intimate, drawing inspiration from experimental forms and theatrical storytelling. With Mifarma, she opens a new portal—one that invites listeners into a sound world both strange and familiar, where emotion simmers below the surface and nothing is quite what it seems.
