ASH Delivers Masterful Debut Tune ‘Infatuated’
ASH makes a remarkable debut with her single “Infatuated,” displaying her smart composition, production, and dramatic performing abilities. This song perfectly expresses the terrible human experience of falling in love with someone who isn’t truly the right fit for you. A strong bass groove serves as the single’s main structural element, while ominous harmonies and slick synthesisers come and go. Delicate rhythms propel the composition forward, while ASH’s entrancing melodic lines float over distorted guitar tones.
Speaking on the thematic narrative of ‘Infatuated’, ASH says, “Everyone remembers when they were young and eager to experience love for the first time, and I think everyone also remembers how consuming that innocent desire could be. ‘Infatuated’ comes from that unrelenting desire, but more specifically from the heart-wrenching experience of when your first partner is your first love, but you’re not theirs. For those who can relate to this, it’s a painfully different kind of first love — a kind in which you start experiencing your first love and first heartbreak pretty much simultaneously. ‘Infatuated’ captures how paralyzing that is.”
ASH’s smooth, intoxicating vocals meander through the song, creating a texture that perfectly complements her lyrical exploration of obsession, vulnerability, and despondence. This dynamic interplay between sound and meaning highlights ASH’s distinct creative intuition and her exceptional ability to illustrate emotion with sensitivity and vividness.
With ‘Infatuated’s debut, ASH shares a beautifully illuminating first track, setting the stage for her promising artistic journey. Speaking on the creative process of ‘Infatuated’, ASH shares, “‘Infatuated’ was the first real track I ever made while I was teaching myself how to produce, so I was really learning what my creative process was for the first time. I now know that every song’s process can be quite different for me, but the most constant thing has been that I need to sonically establish a mood first. For this song, it all began with that repeating bass line. It’s so simple but it immediately evoked such a powerful sinking, heavy feeling. From there it was just about leaning into that emotion in my writing and production until it formed its own world.”
ASH’s debut single is a testament to her ability to transform personal experiences into universal themes, resonating with listeners through both sound and story. ‘Infatuated’ not only marks the beginning of her musical career but also promises an exciting future for this talented artist.
