There are songs that hit you instantly with a beat, and then there are songs that stay with you long after the final note. Zhaklin’s upcoming single “Time Lost” belongs to the second category, a sweeping, emotional track that asks the universal question: Where did all the time go?


“Time Lost” showcases Zhaklin at her most vulnerable and deliberate. Instead of leaning into glossy digital production, she built the track around live instrumentation, weaving together her own piano with cello and flute. The result feels less like a studio recording and more like you’ve been invited into her living room, listening to a story unfold in real time. It’s cinematic yet close, delicate yet powerful.


“I wanted to create a song that feels alive,” Zhaklin explains. And that’s exactly what she’s done. The cello swells with a heavy ache, the flute adds brightness like light through a window, and her voice—raw and raspy—delivers each lyric with striking honesty. Behind the mix, producer Enzo Massardo helped bring her vision fully to life, but the creative fingerprint is all Zhaklin’s, from writing to performance to production.


“Time Lost” doesn’t just linger on nostalgia or regret. Instead, it carries a quiet optimism: yes, time slips away, but there’s still beauty in chasing what matters. It’s a reminder for dreamers, artists, and anyone caught in the push-and-pull of life that while we can’t reclaim lost moments, we can make meaning out of the ones still ahead.


For listeners who already know Zhaklin, this single feels like a bold new step forward. For those who don’t, “Time Lost” might just be the song that makes you stop scrolling, close your eyes, and reflect.



This is one you’ll want to sit with, replay, and maybe even journal to. Because sometimes the most powerful music isn’t about finding answers, it’s about asking the questions we’ve all been too busy to stop and consider.
