The song "B-side" by Manchester-based artist DBL A starts a new EP era. It slowly sinks in and stays there. The song has a warm indie pop sound with smooth R&B undertones. It feels more like a conversation you didn't know you missed. The first guitar chords set the mood for the "B-side," transporting the listener to a place that is both personal and expansive.
The beat, on the other hand, breathes, which makes it easy for DBL A to change styles. DBL A's relaxed, nearly rap-like verses effortlessly flow and resonate with their intended audience. Then, the chorus, which is more R&B-influenced, adds emotional weight without losing its cool. "B-side" talks about love and all the different ways it can be, but not in a big way. It's more like a quiet realization.
The song evokes a sense of contrast, reflecting the emotional ups and downs that come with being close to someone. "DBL A" paints pictures that are instantly recognizable because they are based on experiences that most people can relate to. The song is strong because it sounds like something you've heard before; it feels personal without being too much.
What I like best is how well all of these parts work together. Indie pop melodies, R&B-style singing, and small changes in rhythm all work together without getting in each other's way. "B-side" is like driving through memories you still don't understand late at night. It's both hard and comforting. This track is the first step in DBL A's next EP release. It sets the mood for an artist who is always changing but stays true to their feelings, the mood, and being real.
