Ratfink! Releases their latest track, ‘About Ya’, a warm and breezily melancholic track that feels like a voice memo that could never be sent. With a blend of rock, dream pop, and R&B elements, the song sounds like a wish you make on a late-night drive. The song has an understated and calm confidence that lures you in to sit with it. 

Liv and Raph are high school buddies who are based out of Brunswick, Melbourne. About Ya has a catchy rhythm with guitar work that shimmers, giving the song a serene energy. It sounds effortlessly cool with its short lines, but the more carefully you listen, you realize the lyrics hold a deep sense of care and emotion. They hold the kind of longing and vulnerability that we all feel afraid to let other people know.

About Ya feels deeply personal. The protagonist has been observed with care; their small actions have been taken notice of. Yet the heart of the song is Liv and Raph’s harmonizing. It’s delicate and intentional, and the lines hold a quiet intimacy even through the emotional distance. There is affection, confusion, and perhaps even an unresolved tension, and the beauty of the lines lies in their ambiguity. The lyrics feel like a poem for the one that got away. The song intoxicates its listeners gently, making it the kind of track that lingers in the back of your head.
