Track By Tracks: Ventures - Up, Down, Left, Right, A, B, Start (2024)

1. Reminisce:

This song is about apologizing to the child in you for having to leave him, about how irresistible nostalgia can be, and how regret can push that inner child away from yourself. Once upon a time in my early 20s, I thought I felt more alive when I was a child, almost like adulthood is a bad dream. But I think if you take that inner child with you on your ride through adulthood, life doesn’t stay bad forever. I have changed my mind now as I got older.

2. Portrait:

It's the mask you show the world, nothing is perfect, and neither are you. It's just the idea of perfection that causes more pain. Up, down, left, right, A, B, start It’s a bit of a hype tune! Party tune. Drinking tune. I just wrote how I felt one day whilst drunk and this is what I wrote. It's funny because I don't drink anymore and I ironically love this song because it reminds me not to anymore. I will still sing it, it's fun to play live!

3. Melt with me:

I wrote this sober, A lot changes when you don’t drink and I think a lot of people struggle with it and so, I wrote lyrics about the things that I found difficult at the start. Stuff like spending less time out, feeling your body return to normality, a lack of motivation. But also the negatives if I continued. The lack of control or awareness, the emotional nights, the lack of sleep. The deep and dark abyss is the bottom of a bottle and if I embraced that bottle that's where I would end up.

The next EP will be looking forward and up! So I hope you stick with us so we can deliver more music to you!
