Crewless experimented with the format of its song “Elevator” with one version, the“(going up)” iteration, being more upbeat, brash and dramatic. But it is the lush and downtempo “(going down)” incarnation of the song that will appeal to anyone looking for something more moody and atmospheric. The song appears to be about getting to your own truth relative to the emotional turmoil of someone for whom you care deeply and taking the time out to sort through one’s own level of comfort with the device of an elevator being an adjustable setting of emotional states but desiring to keep things at level that can work for everyone so as to not dip into burnout. The vocals are ethereal yet soulful and reminiscent of Martina Topley-Bird’s on those classic 90s Tricky records. The effect is one of a calming mantra and though melancholic resonant with a spirit of acceptance. Listen to “Elevator (going down)” on Spotify and connect with Crewless at the links provided.
