Canadian artist Ant Cee is taking things to the next level with his new track, “Reasons,” a disco-tinged, alternative-pop track that explores all the highs and lows of human connection. Released through Golden Sea Records, the single fuses glowing production and raw emotion into a simultaneously nostalgic and untethered sound.
“Reasons” is about the swing of love, the longing, the desire, and the unspoken complications that come with it. Ant Cee sings about emotions, the push and pull of wanting someone, and the idea that maybe that person out there isn’t meant for you. There’s new love’s anticipation and the low-level anxieties that seep into it, and somehow, this track renders all of those ups and downs in a way that feels singular and yet instantaneously relatable.
The disco-flavored production behind the song adds a certain level of infectiousness to the emotional weight of the words. A palpable groove coursing through “Reasons” makes it equally suited for late-night contemplation as dancing your heart out. The beat carries you and arranges you as Ant Cee’s vocals navigate you through the journey of uncertainty with love. His delivery is effortless and full of feeling, a testament to the fact that telling stories with music is among his greatest strengths.
Perhaps the strongest feature of “Reasons” is its balance of nostalgia and innovation. And though the disco elements tip their hat to the past, the alternative-pop infusion makes it feel fresh and modern. Ant Cee is creating moments. “Reasons” is an invitation to lean into the messiness of love, a dance of movement through doubt, and a journey to find meaning within the feelings that make us human.
