Highway delivers an exciting two-pack with a fresh sound

The official cover artwork for artist Highway new song Self Love and keep Dat

Two song EPs aren’t particularly common, but I think they’re a great concept. Listening to an EP or album all the way through can be an arduous task, but hearing only a single can leave you wanting more. Highway’s Self Love is an example of a great middle ground between the two, containing two fast-paced tracks that showcase a masterful balance of cohesiveness and variety. The first track, “Self Love”, uses a beat with great electronic brass instruments and erratic drums. The vocal delivery is just as erratic, going through different ranges and vocal cadences while keeping a driving rhythmic feel. Read the lyrics here.

The second track, “keep Dat”, uses another fresh beat with bouncy drums and various R&b-reminiscent electronic instruments. This one is a little more dialed back and slow, with emphasis on a chorus section and verses. He does a great job of using his autotune-assisted vocals to make some catchy melodies to keep you engaged. Overall, Highway is an enjoyable underground artist to keep an eye out for in the future! Be sure to check out both the Seattle artist’s new and old releases.
