Zac Pajak - 'Retrograde'
London-based artist Zac Pajak showcases a stripped back style on emotive new single, ‘Retrograde’ taken from his forthcoming debut EP, ‘Early Hours’.
’Retrograde’ opens with a simple acoustic guitar melody to accompany Zac Pajak’s emotive soulful vocal, putting Pajak’s lyrical prowess at the forefront of the song. As the track develops, subtle electronic textures give the track a fluttering, airy feeling seeing the production (courtesy of jake Gosling) tentatively take flight to correlate with the lyrical theme of new beginnings as Pajak explains:
"’Retrograde’ is about letting go and trusting the journey. Sometimes life can take a turn in a different direction and you just have to believe that things happen for a reason. You may not always end up where you thought you were going, but you’ll always end up where you’re meant to be”
A minimalistic yet emotionally charged cut of soulful confessional pop that seeps sincerity in its entirety.
