While the record might appear rather simple on the surface, it’s actually way more nuanced and layered than one might realise. You see, this is not just an instrumental record per sè; it features a voice sample that reiterates the underlying empowering message behind the record, as well as its heightened emotional allure.
Responsible for the track, we find Malta-based producer Distorted Halo and Romanian fellow producer xein. Apparently, the pair met on TikTok and found shared musical alchemy. ‘Then I Woke Up Pt. 2’ is the perfect evidence of that, a record that doesn’t disappoint, one that also feels rather original and peculiar, quite an interesting bit of artistic work.
Delving deeper into the creative and lyrical ethos that propels the single, Distorted Halo explains: “It’s about following the path you want, regardless of what society may say. It’s my best work to date, it has the best emotional journey among all the songs I’ve made so far”. We appreciate the confidence, and can also confirm that ‘Then I Woke Up Pt. 2’ feels incredibly vibrant and evocative.
