TRACK REVIEW: Aaron Dinning – Seasons

The second single from Aaron Dinning’s sophomore EP discusses the ephemeral nature of love; Seasons is an indie break-up pop track that deftly fuses sadness with summer, perfect for fans of Olivia Rodrigo.Throughout the track, melancholic vulnerability seeps into the layers of Dinning’s warm and expressive vocals. Through skillfully penned lyrics and drawn-out riffs, the track describes the emotional turbulence of patching up the cracks and losing pieces of yourself for love. Cleverly accompanied by softened vocals, its denouement reflects on a painful yet necessary realisation: love shouldn’t come at your expense. Bringing closure to a tumultuous relationship: Seasons beautifully portrays a messy break-up, rooted in the understanding that “people are in your life for a reason or a season.”
