Introduced by a playful, minimal yet expressive beat, ‘Next Train’ instantly showcases Ross King’s lush vocal tone, here delivered with immense charisma and confidence. Such confidence soon transpires through the whole piece, with the single transforming into a modern disco banger. That said, it moves at a rather slow pace, successfully blending King’s emotional lyricism with uplifting sonic energy.
Hauling from Edinburgh, Ross can be considered a holistic creative, excelling both with his musicianship and his nuanced, powerful vocals. Teaming up with fellow producer Catal Muprhy, King is able to effectively rise to the next level in his artistic journey, presenting a record that’s as good as they come. Sharing a touch of nostalgia – perfect for the tail end of summer – ‘Next Train’ is fierce, yet delicate.
Speaking about the inspiration behind it, King explains: “I wanted to capture the hope and longing that comes with the thought of a chance encounter reigniting an old flame. Cathal Murphy’s production has truly brought my vision to life, and I can’t wait for everyone to experience it.”
