Brooklyn based singer-songwriter and producer Richard Orofino is an artist destined for greater things. Receiving praise from the likes of Wonderland, CLASH and many more outlets online, Richard returns with alt-pop leading single ‘Scratch Off‘ from his new EP Chimaera. Culminating Richard’s love for indie and rock music, the track transitions between the two into a melancholic emo, alt-pop folk sound that has captured so many people this year.
Standing out from the superb, 5-track EP, Richard Orofino’s new release takes place in a sort of interrogation scenario, lyrically held to the mouth of the captor or overseer. From the perspective we hear from has an evil energy, the track makes us sympathize with the prisoner we hear about in the song.
Hard-hitting songwriting with ounces of credibility, ‘Scratch Off’ will leave you rethinking life choices, but in the best way possible.
