Andre says:
"The first two tracks on this EP represent my ideal state from waking to enjoying the day and all it has to offer during the spring and summer seasons, winters depression and anxieties are lifting and the day feels generally positive.
Morning Chorus is that first sense of awakening with that good feeling, no anxiety or stress. These days can be far and few between for almost anyone so it’s important to savor them when they occur. This track when I listen back to it takes me back to those happy but quiet mornings when life is good.
Sunshine is a song I wrote for my son Lucien. I tried to make this song quite warm sounding like my first track Two Worlds. There is not much more to say, but I wanted to release at least one song on this EP that was dedicated to him and how much he's changed my life for the better.
Beginnings And Endings is a shift and should segue more in the next release which will have more club oriented tunes, slightly darker tones. Sometimes songs like this I'm not really sure what they are for until they are about to be released. This song is one of those. I was not exactly doing the greatest with my mental health when I wrote this one but I was hopeful that things were going to turn around. Some days you feel good, some days you feel dead awful, I think I'm making peace with the in-between states on this one."
