about
Before the release of the ‘Sparring’ EP, Orton treats us to a second single release in the shape of ‘Amongst Us’. Having spent years working with bands from RCA Records, Primary Talent and Sony Music, Orton’s focus has now shifted to lofi driven production, often resulting in complex arrangements of instrumentation, ethereal soundscapes and driving melodies. Taking inspiration from the iconic shoegaze sound of the 80’s and 90’s, his work evolves from that, leading into new and exciting listening experiences. ‘Amongst Us’ is an inward reflective track that explores the artist’s mechanisms of processing a lot of the social anxiety, and how the artist reflected other people’s personalities because he wasn’t particularly happy with his own and always battling that feeling that you’re far from being the best version of yourself.
