The Moving Castle record label co-founder has once again amazed listeners with his new indie-electronic style and thoughtful, strong energy.

When asked about his brand-new record, Manila Killa stated, “Feelings of nostalgia have overcome many of us, including me in the past two years and I wanted to explore that realm through this song. After hearing the initial vocal demo, I immediately knew that I wanted to draw inspiration from brooding, moody and dark influences and Kwesi’s haunting voice and lyrics offer a glimpse of hope that I molded the instrumental production around.”

Kwesi was also vocal on his love for the song, stating, “We have choices to make every day and sometimes, the mind can go to dark and strange places that are often unhealthy and destructive. This song is about finding our way out of that darkness and working to be better for ourselves and those around us every day.”
