Anthony Williams - Long Way

 


London based artist "Anthony Williams" has released a brand new single, titled "Long Way"

(Released on the 15th April and is already in the Top 100 - iTunes US Christian Songs Chart!) 

The 3 and half minute track is introduced with an ambient, action packed atmosphere, including calming synths alongside the rhythmic rap vocals. It really sets the scene for the rest of the track, engaging and intriguing from the very first moments.

It's a song completely filled with a wild mashup of rap vocals and funky instrumentation, it feels in some very out there territory. It's an upbeat wild ride, and it immediately pulls in the listener with it's unique backing beat and soundscape.. but especially the powerful vocals, and meaningful narrative.

Although the backing instrumentation is definitely very upbeat, and danceable, it isn't too over the top, it's a perfect balance between the vocals and backing. Nothing is too overpowering, everything is carefully mixed together with a sense of complexity and thoughtfulness.

This really allows the smooth vocals and fast paced rhythmic lyrics to flourish together theirselves, it's cohesive and direct, and carries a tremendous amount of life and style throughout.

"Long Way" doesn’t dynamically/musically shift often, however even though it keeps a similar, urban vibe throughout, the arrangement still perfectly holds your gaze and doesn’t let you look anywhere else, you'll find yourself yearning to listen to more of Anthony's discography.
