Tristan Allen Shares New Single + Video “Act III: Rite”

The second offering from Tristan Allen’s Osni the Flare arrives today with “Act III: Rite.”

“Act III: Rite” spirals around a low, looping bass-driven melody, catching embers with each rotation. A street-found pump organ and harmonium provide foundation, their air mechanisms mimicking the breath of the dragon who leads this scene.

Eventually, “Rite” careens into a gentle, epiphanic shimmer—ethereal and hollow. What begins as a grounded ritual transforms into something unmoored and visionary, providing invocation as fire draws attention to a familiar world fractured.

The single is accompanied by another fantastical video by Travis Hood and Ross Mayfield documenting Tristan’s new puppet symphony. Listen, and look now.
