“Better Days” – Andrew Corbin

Andrew Corbin (Toronto) brings us “Better Days,” an electronic foray that, while braiding club energy with an inner compass, refuses mere retro comfort; upbeat drums and a deep, breathing sub‑bass press forward with a confidence that feels earned, while vocals—floating like aurora—hover close enough to guide, yet never to possess. The track’s deliberately cinematic feel emerges in dynamic arcs that, as if the night itself were laying down landmarks, pivot between introspective interludes and bright beginnings, so that momentum—curated rather than nostalgic—becomes practice: find, follow, upgrade, move on. The production, instead of tidying fractures, stages them—memory fragments flicker like damaged frames, only to turn into a platform for drift and transformation, where the cracks don’t interrupt the motion but texture it. Lyrically, the journey toward “home” moves through love and time—not an address, but a state renewing with each beat—so that the voice can trust a connection for direction, while bass and drums, clearing the route, serve as a smoke‑free engine for better days. As a harbinger of the full‑length (early 2026), “Better Days” signals Corbin’s forward gaze—pop‑affine accessibility tempered by a cinematic tension curve and club‑ready architecture—making it a piece for the transitional hours, when the city flickers, the head steadies, and the lights finally point to exits.
