Golden Years - [MR ILYAS] | Soulful R&B

Bask in the warmth. "Golden Years" is an masterclass in smooth, soulful R&B. The track is built on a foundation of rich, warm keys and a laid-back bassline that locks in a hypnotic groove. Soft, brushed percussion and effortlessly smooth female vocals complete the picture, creating a track that feels both intimately personal and universally resonant.
