In “Above Clouds,” the second track on the EP, the mood takes a heartwarming turn that is sure to leave a smile on your face. It’s reminiscent of a warm, sunny day unexpectedly breaking through the clouds on an otherwise gloomy day. The cheerful keys, multiple variations of sprinkled electric guitar, and well-crafted drum beats all contribute to a delightful instrumental arrangement. The top-notch vocal work and dreamy chorus further elevate the song, turning it into an absolute work of art.
“Like Like Me” by Peppermint Moon is a slow and introspective single. The contemplative keys, gloomy riffs, and laid-back beats come together to form the instrumental backdrop. The singer repeatedly expresses, “You don’t owe me anything, I am sad to say,” adding an undertone of melancholy to the song. A noteworthy twist occurs midway, transitioning from slow rock to psychedelic rock, a move that is nothing short of brilliant.

Glowing synths, delicate keyboard flourishes, and rhythmic tension that occasionally rises.
“Foxy Friends” by Peppermint Moon features infectiously upbeat riffs and rhythms giving the song a celebratory, partying spirit from the very start. Catchy vocal hooks paired with nostalgia-inducing instrumental tones help transport listeners back to happier times. As the arrangement builds throughout the verses and choruses, it maintains a cohesive flow thanks to clever transitions and episodic moments that keep things interesting.
