Elaborating on the monitor, Westerman mentioned in a press launch: “I wrote ‘Adriatic’ whereas failing at shifting to Greece. I used to be making an attempt to interrupt outdoors of the confines of my instant bodily actuality. Life is filled with sensible limitations when it comes to having a physique, or what you may afford when it comes to cash, and many others., however you may all the time go to a spot in your head the place the whole lot is feasible, and the music is a celebration of reclaiming that. I hadn’t written something for a very long time. I obtained very depressed after my first file; the entire expertise was simply so unhealthy that I wasn’t certain whether or not I wished to make music anymore. Scripting this music was taking again possession of that artistic area which is simply my factor and it’s highly effective. There are durations in all people’s life the place they really feel like possibly they don’t have any management over something. It’s the realisation that there’s part of you that they’ll’t get to except you enable for it, and you’ll all the time maintain that area, even when it’s buried; it doesn’t go away so long as you keep in mind that it’s there.”
