STRAY LIGHT‘s debut track “Once I Was” is out March 29.
Stray Light is the brainchild of London underground producer and DJ John-Paul Denton, also known for his outlet XY-Me. We’re psyched to premiere today “Once I Was”, the first outing under this new moniker. Driven by a shadowy yet sumptuous electronic bass, the crepuscular track was co-written with none other than Rob Davis. Encapsulating a mixture of lovers angst and teenage heartbreak, the melancholic and romantic cut draws on auto-tune to alter the timbre and harmonics of the vocals, thus avoiding any gender classification. “I thought a woman like you would never want a girl like me”, sings a mysterious voice. Introspective and intriguing, the early hours banger puts feelings and emotions to the forefront.
