Following on from the release of recent single ‘Yeah (I’m In)’, Noonzy returns with his irresistible new offering, ‘Easy’. Opening with a warm synth-led intro, the track quickly unfolds into a showcase of his knack for infectious melodies and polished pop craftsmanship. Brimming with charm and confidence, ‘Easy’ provides another enticing glimpse into his forthcoming debut album, Plan Is Bad, due for release on 2 October via Play It Again Sam. Reflecting on the new uptempo single, Noonzy says, “What started out as a mellow demo in 3/4 (yes, a waltz!) turned into an uptempo 4/4 pop track. The intro still carries the character of what the demo used to be; there’s a stillness in it, almost like a moment of pause where everything is allowed to exist without resistance. “Hang like a willow.” As we experimented with the rhythm, we found that the 4/4 version of the same musical idea had an undeniable energy. We didn’t want to lose the character of the intro entirely though—it felt too important. That stillness is what makes the energy of the 4/4 hit the way it does, so instead of choosing between them, we found a way to bridge the two. As the track develops from the intro, a more rhythmic synth pattern and vocal harmonies are introduced, gently building momentum toward the 4/4. That shift leads into the central idea of the song: “only when you move.” It’s a turning point—a call to release everything you’ve been holding in. When the drums finally kick in, the track bursts into motion, almost like a train leaving the station.” Take a listen below.
