Genderless and genre-bending digital composer X+Y=U [pronounced; x plus y equals u] breaks their year-long musical silence with the release of their new record "Walls (demo)." The heartfelt ballad explores the complexities of love, from its duality, the vulnerability it evokes and its temporal nature. Over a solemn and soul-stirring piano composition with compelling chord progressions, X+Y=U takes audiences on a life-changing journey with rich melodic runs and unapologetic and emotionally powerful songwriting that showcases his distinct songwriting style.
The best part is that "Walls (demo)" was formed mainly in one recording take, with the piano and main vocal being performed live together
