MAVER - 'Scratches'

Fresh off the release of ‘Close Enough’, Boorloo/Perth-based electronic artist MAVER goes from strength to strength with another quirky number in ‘Scratches’, a jubilant and off-kilter release that centres itself around crisp production and those majestic vocals that intertwine together to further inject that funk-inspired groove into your system.

Built around the robust synth bass that carries the groove through from the word go, ‘Scratches’ furthers this sense of captivation and allure through the deepened percussion and lively synths that showcase not only a significant polish in production but allows plenty of room in the mix for those mesmerising and jubilant vocals to bounce around the already buoyant soundscape on offer.

“‘Scratches’ is a song inspired by lockdown and being trapped in a solitary space. The song is also about looking out for someone you care about when they’re not in a mentally good place, especially when going into a spiral. Being isolated and separated from other people can make you stuck in your thoughts, unable to get out. ‘Scratches’ is about the relationship between someone that can help you out of your head and yourself whilst spiralling out of control.” – Maver
