LIST PICK

ASFANDYAR ALI ROSE COLOURED PLANET

Coming from a completely unknown artist, ‘Rose Coloured Planet’ is an emotional acoustic guitar ballad full of introspective lyrics. Asfandyar Ali has chosen a delicate, arpeggiated chord sequence to fun throughout the track, allowing their simplicity to keep his voice and lyrics as the central focus. The introspective words reach their head in the chorus: ‘But I will find my home down here, and I hope tomorrow's sky is clear’. Despite the track and its mellow acoustic style give off strong vibes of the likes of Iron And Wine, there are hints at bands like Radiohead seeping through the composition. - Dan Peeke
