The lushly melodic “Trusty Shoes” comes via Droolfox, a duo from Bangalore, India. Spacey synths, a hypnotic bass, and light smatterings of guitar establish an entrancing soundscape to start. Serene vocals then enter alongside glistening keys and soft guitars. 01:12 sees another convergence of synths, guitars, and rhythms, this time with a tender vocal presence. “Trusty Shoes” is a hooky and easy-listening success from Droolfox.
“‘Trusty Shoes’ throws light upon fear, its absence, and the acknowledgment to not being ready for love,” the act writes. “The EP has a dark undertone despite its vivid sound. It speaks about the fear of commitment, which is very common in our generation, lives are ever faster, we don’t wanna compromise a thing, just not ready for love as convention knows it.”
