And It Was Night
Los Angeles dark alternative project And It Was Night released an official music video on July 27, 2026, for the single “What’s Beyond the Light?”. And It Was Night is the solo project of composer and sound designer Rani Sharone.
Sharone wrote “What’s Beyond the Light?” after moonlit walks, drawing on The Cure, Echo and the Bunnymen, The Church, My Bloody Valentine and The Mission. The track moves with a steady club pulse while guitars dissolve at the edges and electronics cast a dim sheen across the mix. Sharone filmed and edited the accompanying video himself, moving through open terrain and blurred natural forms while glitches and repeated gestures disrupt the footage.
She describes the approach to the visual: “Short form videos have always proved to be a fun and creative way to give my music a visual pairing, so jumping into a full length video was an amazing exercise and challenge. I set out to create a dreamy and sometimes disorienting video filled with movement, nature, and things that directly inspired my lyrics for the song, including sights from my own neighborhood.”
“What’s Beyond the Light?” is available on Bandcamp.
And It Was Night’s ‘What’s Beyond the Light?’ follows single ‘Lovers of Evil’
“What’s Beyond the Light?” was released as And It Was Night’s third single in March 2026, alongside an earlier single, “Lovers of Evil,” inspired by the television series “True Detective.” The July 27 release adds an official music video to the existing track.

Chief editor of Side-Line – which basically means I spend my days wading through a relentless flood of press releases from labels, artists, DJs, and zealous correspondents. My job? Strip out the promo nonsense, verify what’s actually real, and decide which stories make the cut and which get tossed into the digital void. Outside the news filter bubble, I’m all in for quality sushi and helping raise funds for Ukraine’s ongoing fight against the modern-day axis of evil. Besides music I’m also an SEO and AI content flow specialist and have an interest in everything finance from stocks to crypto. There is music in everything!
Since you’re here …
… we have a small favour to ask. More people are reading Side-Line Magazine than ever but advertising revenues across the media are falling fast. Unlike many news organisations, we haven’t put up a paywall – we want to keep our journalism as open as we can - and we refuse to add annoying advertising. So you can see why we need to ask for your help.
Side-Line’s independent journalism takes a lot of time, money and hard work to produce. But we do it because we want to push the artists we like and who are equally fighting to survive.
If everyone who reads our reporting, who likes it, helps fund it, our future would be much more secure. For as little as 5 US$, you can support Side-Line Magazine – and it only takes a minute. Thank you.
