KERB
“Kerb” instantly sets a more haunting, melancholic tone compared to Alps. It's raw, moody, and emotionally heavier. The track has an underground, almost confessional feel—something recorded in the stillness of night. There's a real sense of vulnerability here, which makes it feel intimate and personal.
Sparse and minimalist. The space in the instrumental lets the emotion breathe. The use of delay and reverb adds depth, but it never feels overdone.
There’s a gritty, almost analog warmth to the track from the mix, works beautifully with the vocal style.
This track leans heavily into emotional delivery. Eddy sounds pained, contemplative, or even conflicted. There’s a fragility in his tone that feels very real.
The lyrics abstractly are dealing with loss, inner turmoil, or navigating emotional wreckage.
"Kerb" as a title feels symbolic—like being on the edge of something emotionally significant. It’s a strong metaphor and sets the tone.
"Kerb" is one of those songs that hits deeper on a second or third listen. It doesn’t beg for attention—it earns it quietly. Eddy Akwa is clearly crafting a sonic identity rooted in emotion, reflection, and poetic minimalism.
