“Making Moves’ is a melodic new single from Vero Strange, the project of Brooklyn-based artist and musician Dan Fisher. Debonair guitar lines and sharp synth elements drive into the confident vocal delivery, complemented by a bass-y immersion as the 9-to-5 lyrical introspections arrive.
The “c’mon let’s make moves,” vocal proclamation enamors alongside the swift guitar jangling and sporadic buzzes, driving into the bass-fronted verses with cohesive enamoring. The track plays with a stylish, infectious suaveness with shades of The Cars, and marks another success from the project, first catching our ears with “That’s Just Speed” last year.
Fisher elaborates on the track:
“What you are is what you do, free to die how you choose” I try to let my subconscious do the writing. Often, I’ve noticed that my lyrics predict something that’s about to happen, like an act of warning. Making Moves was an attempt to hijack prophecy, instead making the lyrics about being free in all aspects of life. And who knows, that story might come true, if you choose to write your own life.
