The atmospheric tune kicks off with an acoustic guitar, followed by additional faint instrumentation and the introduction of Roach’s melodious vocal. Quintessential melodic bass at its absolute best, NURKO’s latest original production audibly boasts all of the best signature sensibilities the genre has to offer including a larger-than-life ambiance, profound lyricism, hard-hitting bass drops, and an emotionally-charged tone that’s maintained with ease from start-to-finish. In all, it serves as a monumental release for both artists as the forthcoming release of the ‘Arrival’ EP draws nearer.
