“Riddles” is the first single from Maryland songwriter ANDO’s upcoming EP “For The Most Part”.
The song effortlessly blends Caribbean and Pop influences to create a fresh, catchy, unique perspective on Urban Pop music. It explains the complexities of engaging in a confusing relationship while trying to maintain some sense of reality. Riddled with an uptempo reggae-inspired bassline, a catchy hook, and
engaging harmonies, the song stays fresh from beginning to end. From the first lyric of the song “I’m slipping off the ledge, dangling from your thread, I’m hanging over the edge” ANDO’s purpose is stated.
Heavy synth guides the hook while ANDO’s trademark vocal approach sweeps in and out, elaborating on that sense of yearning for fulfillment or answers. The song is meant to express a feeling mutually shared by yearning lovers. Something relatable that extends on the idea that sometimes we just need reminding that love is still there.
