An easy listening tune at heart, “Dark Places” takes listeners through a sonic journey of numerous feelings and emotions. Feels of nostalgia tend to take center stage as the slow and melodic tempo wraps hearts immediately. Clocking in at just under four minutes, “Dark Place” serves up a multitude of styles within one track, and most importantly surpasses creative boundaries. Manila Killa shows a sentimental and beautiful side to this track and we’re all thrilled to see it.

“Dark Places marks the beginning of a new perspective on how I view the world alongside music. Feelings of nostalgia have overcome many of us, including me in the past two years and I wanted to explore that realm through this song. After hearing the initial vocal demo, I immediately knew that I wanted to draw inspiration from brooding, moody and dark influences and Kwesi’s haunting voice and lyrics offer a glimpse of hope that I molded the instrumental production around.” – Manila Killa
