Oh Angus Legg! You might remember he got me all emotional mid-year with his single “Someone I Never Knew.” Now he’s done it again with his latest single “Spaceship.” Can someone please pass the tissues?
“‘Spaceship’ was written about six months ago. I wrote it directly after breaking up with my partner of two years,” Angus said. “‘Spaceship’ explores imaginative, otherworldly scenarios, almost desperately begging for them to be a reality. The lyrical punchline drives home that it was not only the end of the relationship, it was the beginning of an uncomfortable, foreign journey neither of our emotions were prepared to embark upon.”
Angus’ close friend and fellow Naarm/Melbourne creative Jim Alxndr mixed the track and helped bring out the best in it.
“Jim’s superpower is providing a safe space for others to sit in their emotions, he’ll sit there with you too. He’s also incredibly sonically inventive, his passion for artistic experimentation shines through in the record,” Angus enthused. “There are so many layers that create the depth and texture that you may not necessarily hear immediately, however, they all lend themselves perfectly to the emotional landscape we created.”
I’ve been such a fan of everything Angus has released. The singles don’t come quickly, but when they do boy do they hit. I can’t wait to hear what’s next.
