Cute Delay

Cute Delay is a dream pop track about a single word arriving too late to be ignored.

Set inside an almost empty subway station before sunrise, the song follows a cool and intelligent woman whose emotional composure begins to slip after hearing an unexpected compliment.

She was used to being called smart.

She was used to being called distant.

But being called cute stayed with her.

Blending melancholic city pop, lo fi textures, broken dance music, VHS damaged atmospheres, and underground station ambience, the track transforms a fleeting moment into an endless echo.

Cute Delay captures the strange delay between hearing a word and finally feeling its impact.
