MINAS - 'As It Goes'

MINAS share final track ‘As It Goes’ from their EP ‘Nudge’ - a raw acoustic song that oozes those early experiences of the Streets and Plan B. 

There is a subtle tone throughout this track, with a simple guitar melody that creates the groundwork for the vocal delivery to flourish with emotional content. With a flatline vibe it allows the listener to take in every word on this track - showing off the full creative lyrical form from Minas, reminding us of the early days of Mike Skinner. While the track doesn't offer much energy and pace - I feel that works to it’s advantage - in such a way that it contains it rawness to the point of beauty. 

Talking about the track - MINAS says: "As It Goes is the rawest song I've ever done - its about an occasion that led to my girlfriend leaving, and it was kind of a wake up call which led to the self reflection in the song. It helped me realise I'm just being a fuck up, I've let things go to far, I don't like who I've become and I am going to change things. It wasn't viable and I won't survive like this. If anything the song is therapy, cathartic - it's me not hiding behind vocal effects. The song is the reflection."
