Warm and fresh vibes make the latest release from mithrilblue an irresistibly pleasant tune. A chilled combination of alternative r&b and bedroom pop, the track relies on warm chords with a pinch of melancholy. The track reaches the highest point when the drums take over the instrumental and bring a good amount of energy to the composition.

This sound aesthetics is a result of the US artist returning to the simple things in life(throughout the Pandemic) that gave him peace, joy and freedom as a kid, defusing gaming, 90's anime, and Mr Rodgers into low fidelity pop and hip-hop. He shares:

"HONEY" is the expression of that anxious fear or when something or someone special enters into your life and how its at the same time amazing and terrifying. I've always been someone to self-sabotage the best things that have stepped into myself, in both relationships and opportunities. Whether it's because we feel we don't deserve it, or we fear how something or someone is helping us grow but also exposing the areas of our lives we've tried to hide or ignore.
