Name: Again by Handsome Shirt
Duration: 3 min 4 s
Description: Drawing from the warmth of vintage soundtracks and classic soul records, "Again" is a moody, emotionally charged track that explores the cycle of falling back into love—despite promising yourself you wouldn’t. Through haunting repetition and raw, vulnerable lyrics, it captures the tension and tenderness of an on-again, off-again relationship.

Stephan Kreussel is a South Africa based solo musician that produces faintly trippy, romantic dream pop.
After studying sound engineering and sound art, he released his debut album, Early in 2018 as a side project. It was received so positively that he decided to produce music full time.

Stephan is also one half of psych-pop duo Caramel with Domas Morkunas. The two recorded three singles in Lithuania in 2019 that was also incredibly well received. Thanks to the pandemic, Stephan is now locked down in South Africa writing new material by his lonesome almost every day.

Cruel af is a groovy, ironically upbeat song about a relationship falling apart during this Covid Lockdown. Punchy drums, duelling guitars and a grooving bass line get juxtaposed with dreamy, melancholic vocals and keys.
