What happens when you know you’re on the wrong path, but powerless to turn around? ‘Separated’ is the lead single from Road to Paradise, the upcoming EP from i.e., and the first in the three-part Paradise EP series: Road to Paradise, Lost in Paradise, and Paradise Lost. This is an exploration into intimacy, detailing the reunion of i.e. with the love of his life after a tumultuous time apart. Can we forgive again? Can we trust again? Can we be like we were? These are the questions that come through the pensive lyrics, layered smoothly over the production of musical partner in crime, iam.solo. Solo twists the catchy RnB melodies with dark and colourful sounds, skipping with intermittent electronic glitches that echo the uncertainty in i.e.’s questioning.
Once paradise is lost, can it be regained?
