Dark poetic alt-pop artist, Samantha Margret delivers a brooding and off-kilter track "Night Jogging" that caught our attention. The track's soundscape is moody, dynamic and cinematic as it builds on tension and resolution between the verses and the chorus sections. The track was inspired while she was driving late at night and came across a man jogging and she realized how scared she would be if she were in his shoes (literally speaking). Backed by dark pads that slowly build up into a rousing drum-laden piece, Samantha details how one person's comfort could be another person's anxiety-fuelled nightmare and she takes listeners deep into the mix with her graphic imagery and gripping vocals that cut through the mix like hot knife through butter.
In summary, "Night Jogging" is a record that succinctly depicts the ways in which fear taints otherwise lovely activities and spaces.
