Blocked And Owed

Alt-pop with a mid-tempo swung groove, crisp kick-snare and pulsing bass; verse stays sparse with close-mic vocal and clipped guitar plucks, pre-chorus opens with stacked harmonies and a rising synth bed, chorus lands wider with octave doubles and a chantable hook. Use reverse swells into the hook, tiny bell hits between lines, and a final lift with layered ad-libs. Intimate, glossy, and sharply emotional.
