More Than Ever

Ahead of the release of his new EP ‘Limitations’, Cyrano shares the introspective title track - a raw, self-reflective anthem for anyone grappling with identity, burnout, and the quiet struggle to keep moving forward. With his signature honesty and cinematic production, ‘Limitations’ captures the tension between self-awareness and self-doubt, unfolding through late-night chats on an open road. Written between time zones and emotional states, it’s Cyrano at his most vulnerable, yet most resilient. Cyrano returns next month for a special EP launch show, raising funds for War Child and those displaced from their homes due to conflict.

Limitations lyrics:

Well I guess I know my limitations
And I’m not hard defined
Well I guess I know my limitations
And I’m not hard defined
Well I guess I know my limitations

It’s typical me to leave a moment
In the sight of everyone
As I try to overcome
My typical need to be heroic
As I’m lent my time by sleep
Is this the life I want to keep?

And I'm not hard defined

Well I guess I know my limitations
And I’m not hard defined
Well I guess I know my limitations
And I’m not hard defined
Well I guess I know my limitations

In the sight of everyone
I was tired and overrun
But like the whole of my head now
I’m not hard defined

And I'm not hard defined
And I’m not hard defined
Well I guess I know my limitations

Consequential (Mix)

Fresh from making his Glastonbury debut, Cyrano shares ‘Heavy Dust’, the kinetic lead single from his new EP ‘Limitations’. 

It’s a post-festival anthem, soaked in melancholy and longing, which captures the feeling of homesickness and emotional distance after a year spent touring the world; from Aberdeen to Auckland, New York to Singapore. 

Cyrano will return to London this October for a special EP launch show, raising funds for War Child and those displaced from their homes due to conflict.

Heavy Dust Lyrics:

Heavy dust clouds and sleeping on doubt
Settle down and wait it out
What’s the cost of an hour in your heart?
Hour’s over and I hardly breathe
So tell me what it’s all about

So how did you notice signs 
To tell me something’s wrong?

I was lost, I was your fool
But I’ve worked out all the days ’til I’ll see you
I could write better in my letters with another night’s sleep at home
Cos I'm resigned to hard times on my own
To figure what I’m all about

So how did you notice signs 
To tell me something’s wrong?

Hours in your heart
Hour's over
And I hardly breathe

overdrive Radio Show (Episode 443)

A beautiful blend of melodic techno and melodic house - feel the warmth as the track takes you to your own secret stretch of sand and sea. Hypnotic, chilled and uplifting, it layers cinematic synths, deep bass, and a driving groove. Just imagine if Sébastien Léger or Ben Böhmer were English and you've got the vibe :)
