Wrapping up the EP with hope and optimism, ‘An End to My Beginnings’ is a musical and metaphorical marker of the first stage in a musical journey. Unafraid to blend complex instrumental parts, 16th piano arpeggios sit underneath glockenspiel highlights and demonstrates how emotional change is neither smooth or linear.

An End To My Beginnings

Exploring fragility, vulnerability, longing and loneliness, ‘Devil’s Song’s upbeat vibes contrast with lyrics swathed in reverberant melancholy. Prominent acoustic guitar and mid-tempo shakers lend ‘Devil’s Song’ an Indie aesthetic, while maintaining a dynamic structure with attention to detail in orchestration and form.

Devil's Song

Ambitious, cinematic, timeless: ‘Wishing Well’ sounds straight out of the golden age. Drawing from classic song-writing, guitar and piano arpeggios complement a vintage Fairlight CMI and lush tuned percussion. Floydian guitars, analogue filter sweeps and epic piano culminate in an epic coda, building ‘Wishing Well’ to an urgent, double-time crescendo.

Fragile and reflective, ‘Black Waves’ echews drums in favour of a washy piano and synth-laden soundscape. Melding modern classical with progressive orchestration, minimalist vocals against a lead piano anchor, ‘Black Waves’ envelops sadness with the experimental textures of Arturia synthesis. Mindful and complex, ‘Black Waves’ ponders emotional tensions and resolutions.

Opener ‘New Dawn’ sets a contemplative, introspective mood with wandering piano, melodic guitar arpeggios and jazzy interludes. Influenced by contemporary classical and alternative rock, ‘New Dawn’s delicate vocals sit atop rich, sweeping synthesisers and twinkling glockenspiel. With its deeply layered textural orchestration, New Dawn explores dynamic range and emotional change.

Ronnie Bennett crafts timeless soundscapes that blend indie and alternative rock with elements of classical music. Drawing inspiration from Radiohead, Pink Floyd, and Rush, his songs defy conventional structures, weaving themes of vulnerability, longing, emotional transformation, and hope. With a love of piano-driven melodic toplines, vocal fragility, and complex, accomplished orchestration, 18-year-old Ronnie incorporates varied synthesiser textures drawn from Arturia, Nord–and even the legendary Fairlight CMI–synthesisers. Intertwined with acoustic guitars and tuned percussion—no sampling, just authentic musicianship. With a vision to fuse musical styles and push genre boundaries, Ronnie invites listeners to immerse–and feel moved–in his unique sonic world.
