“Loving You was born after a long break from making music. I went back to how I started – chopping up old samples, writing chords on guitar and mixing genres & sounds – old & new.
Panta Ray
This track really embodies what I try to go for in a song – balance. It’s not always easy to achieve but what I love is making something that you relax to or dance to. Something that’s old sounding but shiny and new. Something that’s ambient and spacey but in your face. Something that’s moody but uplifting. I think this track captures all those ideas pretty well.”
