ROSIN JUST A BOY
‘just a boy’ is a sweet sonic love letter from Rosin. It’s a gentle, intimate track that allows her voice to take centre stage above stripped-back production. Tender acoustic guitar provides most of the chordal support, but the low swirling of synths adds an otherworldly, cinematic vibe to the track. “I fell in love with someone while I was travelling and shortly after I found myself in a long-distance relationship,” she says. “It had been so long since I experienced being in love so strongly and it made me romanticise everything! (which I think is necessary to cope with the distance). I just found it so fascinating that we are in different countries, having different lives, speaking different languages but that we still share this bond with each other, that makes us want to be together, even if we are apart.” Keep an eye out for more from Rosin this year. -Dan Peeke
