Duskus Delivers Uplifting Bop 'Hard Times' Via bitbird – FUXWITHIT
Known for delivering emotional ballads that blur the lines between house and future bass, Duskus has steadily grown into a sound that he can uniquely call his own, and that resonates with many. Opting to craft songs with meaning instead of forcing energy where it is not needed, the British artist consistently manages to blend styles to evoke raw, natural emotions in listeners. Returning to bitbird with his newest single titled ‘Hard Times,’ Duskus continues to do just that.
In his words, “When someone is sad in a movie, there is always some sort of negative music. I think ‘Hard Times’ is cool because the lyrics really embrace the fact that life has not been the best for people, however the actual track is really uplifting and happy. And in combination it allows you to appreciate every moment, even the bad ones…” We couldn’t have painted the contrast better ourselves. Despite having a title and lyrics presenting sadness and gloom, the beat is uplifting and oddly danceable. ‘Hard Times’ is quintessential Duskus, with soft, shimmering chords balancing the blunt reality of the lyrics. ‘Hard Times’ is about acceptance of difficult situations, and learning from them once they have passed, and Duskus beautifully conveys this message in his latest.
