Emily Daccarett Holds Love Beyond Loss on EP “Another World”

About the Artist

Singer-songwriter and multidisciplinary artist Emily Daccarett approaches music through a cinematic lens, drawing from her background in couture and music. Her work marries sound and visuals, shaping synth-pop that feels atmospheric, nostalgic, and closely tied to storytelling.

Her two-track EP Another World, released in March 2024, stands as a personal tribute to Zane Alexander Strickland. The project moves through love as something that doesn’t end, but changes, holding onto its presence even after it’s gone.

The EP

Clarity is two people starting off lost, and instead of one saving the other, they pull each other out. And then the track carries you without asking, like you’ve already given in. The lyric, “the Cosmos are to blame,” takes away any sense of choice and replaces it with inevitability, like they’ve just stumbled into something written for them. That idea is the recurring theme, also seen in the line, “yours and mine are the same,” like two people recognising themselves in each other.

Meanwhile, when the beat kicks in and suddenly it feels like it’s running, like you haven’t slept but you’re still wired from talking to someone all night. And the percussion keeps everything moving, never letting it settle, almost like the emotions themselves. At the same time, the song doesn’t ignore the hesitation. “We can try to fight it,” feels solid until the repetition makes it sound weak, almost like they already know they won’t win. So, they “enter clarity,” and everything finally makes sense when they give into each other.

Then, Another World, the title track, sounds like standing on a terrace late at night, staring up at the sky until your eyes adjust and suddenly there’s more up there than you noticed before. It sits in that strange space where someone is gone but not really gone. The line, “…other world,” feels like something you can’t reach but still feel around you.

Meanwhile, the vocals are soft, close, yet there’s this ache running through them that never really peaks. There’s a lot of movement through spaces that don’t settle. Beaches, roads, streets, empty rooms, all of them feel endless, like someone keeps walking but never arrives anywhere. That is what builds the feeling of being stuck in grief without saying it directly. And, the beach memory stands out because it’s so specific, “hold me tighter and don’t let go,” the line hurts because the letting go has already happened.

Dreams carry the weight of Another World, they become the only place where loss and presence sit together and not cancel each other out.

Finally, Clarity and Another World bleed into each other. One feels like the rush of falling into something you can’t control, the other feels like what’s left when that same feeling lingers without a place to go. The whole thing feels suspended, time slowing down without stopping. It moves like a memory you keep replaying, not because you want to, but because it won’t let you go.
