Blossoming progressive house artist Ward Andrews is stepping into the electronic music world with a bold vision. At a time when the industry favors short, easily digestible tracks, Andrews is embracing a different philosophy – crafting expansive, long-form soundscapes designed to transport listeners through layered, immersive experiences.
As a longtime creative force in the arts and design world, Andrews has discovered a new medium for his lifelong passion: music. His approach is rooted in his knack for creating cinematic masterpieces that serve as a soundtrack for work, play, and life. Inspired by the hypnotic energy of 70s disco, 80s synth pop, and 90s house, Andrews blends nostalgia with forward-thinking production, resulting in compositions that are both familiar and refreshingly original.
With an artist project born during the pandemic, his debut single “Do You Hear Me Now” garnered 90,000 streams, followed by his sophomore track, “Timbavati,” which amassed 100,000 streams. His latest release “Now or Never” caught the attention of Swedish label LoudKult, marking a key milestone in his musical evolution. Andrews has also performed at major events like Goldrush Music Festival and Decadence Arizona; supported artists including Genix, LUTTRELL, Jerro, and Romain Garcia; and he hosts a new radio show on Insomniac Radio, Creation Park, airing on the first Tuesday of each month at 10 PM PT.
Now, Andrews is gearing up for the release of his debut EP, The Decoration Of Time, on Friday, May 16. Fusing his unique progressive house sound with elements of atmospheric and melodic beats, the upcoming EP is a deep exploration of Andrews’ artistic journey. With The Decoration Of Time, Andrews seeks to not only captivate through rhythm and melody but also evoke emotions that encourage personal reflection, growth, and connection with the passage of time.
Today, Andrews kicks off the EP rollout with lead single “Future Memories” – a track created as a way to redefine the way music, memory, and time are experienced. Exploring the concept of time “Future Memories” captures the feeling of being suspended between the past and what’s yet to come. Its immersive soundscape creates a continuous loop of emotion, blending nostalgia with endless possibility.
Spanning six minutes, “Future Memories” is a melodic journey that incorporates warm synth textures, pulsating basslines, and evolving percussion. While the track develops, it pulls listeners in deeper with ethereal synth pads and sweeping atmospheric elements, creating a sense of movement, while rhythmic progressions give the track its driving force. Rejecting conventional song structures, “Future Memories” is a cinematic loop that transports listeners into a transcendent soundscape.
Fans can catch Ward Andrews play out “Future Memories” at his upcoming tour dates during Miami Music Week, including two shows at The Clevelander Rooftop, The Clevelander Pool, and Over Under.
