Since the release of The Choices We Face EP on bitbird, DROELOE have been busy touring North America while continuously cooking up new beats for fans to enjoy. The dual single ‘Facing The Sea/Through The Storm’ was an emotive listening experience about finding yourself and tackling challenges head-on. Today, the Dutch duo return with another story-telling single titled ‘Only Be Me’, and it is the perfect embodiment of what everyone loves about DROELOE.
Our modern world requires people to put on different masks, whether it be on social media or in real life. Sometimes, it feels like putting on a front is the only way a person can make a name for themselves. With ‘Only Be Me’, DROELOE confront the idea that it’s okay to shed the mask; especially around the people who care about you the most. Through their distinct chord layering, cutesy percussion and masterful ability to highlight vocals, the duo create a surreal soundscape that will evoke the most meaningful emotions. Underneath the catchy chorus and classically inventive DROELOE production lies a powerful message.
“Finding someone, something, or someplace where you truly feel like you can be comfortable being yourself is a beautiful thing. But of course, life isn’t really like that and apart from a few special exceptions, it’s hard for most people to feel that way. This track is about that feeling and about that special someone that gives it to you.”
Stratified with meaning and emotion, ‘Only Be Me’ is a tasteful introduction to what lies ahead for DROELOE.
