‘Early Morning Glow’: Slow-Burn Optimism

‘Early Morning Glow’ begins with a slow, almost dragging melody that quickly picks up the pace. It holds in its shuffling rhythms and piano melodies rhythms that feel unique while embody a unique character. 

There’s a sense that these vocal melodies will only continue to ramp up in intensity as awareness builds. The listener is simply privy to this sense of building optimism, encouraged to immerse themselves in the melodies that openly present themselves. 

The ramping yet chill intensity on ‘Early Morning Glow’, seems to belay its sense of optimism. The near constant build up, followed by a liberating key-change give the track room to breathe as well as allow sunny disposition to shine through. 

“…Early morning glow, light up where we go…”

The slower downbeats on the track allow the track to almost wake up from its slumber, almost as though the melodies just got out of bed and are simply going through their day. 

A slow build, constant and filled with sunny optimism, ‘Early Morning Glow’ by Steve and Dolapo is an energetic track. One that builds itself on slow rhythms that feel solid and imbued with set optimism.
