Stresshead has returned to provide us with an incredibly danceable track about not being able to run from your problems called ‘Runaway’. Despite being an incredibly sweet-sounding track with light, vibrant synths and intricate beat switches, the echoing vocals speak of lingering thoughts you can’t escape, no matter how hard you try.
There’s a lot of layers to ‘Runaway’, making it a very dynamic track full of sharp transitions. Stresshead has really created a great track that keeps you pulled it and makes you want to hit replay multiple times. The track is infectious and will stick with you for a very long time.
“‘Runaway’ is a song about longing for escape, though never being able to truly escape myself. I’ve been on the road backpacking around the US for the last few months and this has been ringing true – wherever I go, there I am. I usually write songs in one go in intense creative bursts, but this one came around differently, instead piecing together different parts that I wrote over the course of a few months to create the final thing.” – Stresshead
