Nevertheless, the dreamy feel and heartfelt vocal delivery are still there. The song is about the feeling of drifting apart, bittersweet sadness, and yet true togetherness, love, and care. \u201cTaurud\u201d is working with talented musicians from Manchester, and an up-and-coming producer Sean Rogan (<em>Spotify<\/em> Sean Rogan). This collaboration is set to continue to record an EP and later a whole album. The song is written by \u201cTaurud\u201d.<\/p>\n<p><iframe title=\"YouTube video player\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/M-HzYemsiTA\" width=\"560\" height=\"315\" frameborder=\"0\" allowfullscreen=\"allowfullscreen\"><\/iframe><\/p>\n<p>Artist says that the last year has been a road of discovery of who he really is, why he is on the current path, and now is ready for a creative leap forward. \u201cI was hiding for quite some time. I still wrote songs and met people I wanted to collaborate with but wasn\u2019t going out there to show any of my work to anyone. I needed to redefine what my purpose in music was. Now I simply want to do it to give something beautiful to everyone and to make this world a better place. No attachments to money, success, attention, or anything like that. Just pure creativity. This song is about my love for every human on the earth.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>The musicians plans to release another single in spring, followed by an EP, album, and concerts in Riga and Jurmala. \u201cTaurud\u201d is actively participating in Manchester\u2019s music scene.
