Ways sounds like the inside of a computer that's overheating while playing a beautiful melody. It is a collision of high-velocity digital textures and raw, vulnerable emotion. The production often leans into the 'tweak' aesthetic, where sounds are stretched, crushed, and rearranged until they feel both alien and deeply human. It's music born from the internet, carrying the frantic energy of a million open tabs.
What sets Ways apart is the balance between aggression and melody. While the beats might feature distorted 808s and sharp, glitchy percussion, the vocal delivery often retains a melodic, almost pop-adjacent sensibility. This creates a tension where the listener is pulled between the urge to move and the urge to sit in the heavy, melancholic atmosphere. It’s the sound of the NOVAGANG collective's influence filtered through a singular, restless perspective.
Start with 'tweak anthem' to understand the high-energy, distorted foundation of his sound, then move to 'You Lose Forever' for a more cohesive, atmospheric experience. It’s perfect for those moments when you feel a bit too connected to your devices and a bit too disconnected from everything else.
