Way To Go

Way To Go — the third single from the duo’s upcoming self-titled debut album — is led by Erol’s evocative vocals and Ak’s desert blues-inspired guitar riffs. The track blends surreal imagery with emotional depth, creating a sense of drifting through time and space. References to moments like “before the sunrise” and “a sunny after” evoke a liminal world where night and day blur. The lyrics carry a quiet urgency — a poetic search for meaning and direction amid the chaos of modern life. Lines like “monkeys out of their cage” and “streets of laughter” introduce a layer of absurdity, highlighting the confusion that often accompanies self-discovery. It’s both an intimate inner journey and a universal reflection on identity and purpose.

Musically, Way To Go draws inspiration from Moroccan rhythms and Azeri folk music, marking the first Oh Voyage track to move beyond the conventional 4/4 structure. The song was built initially around intricate rhythmic motifs; over time, hauntingly catchy hooks, playful improvisations, and chilling drops brought it to life. The result is a sound that feels both mysteriously extroverted and emotionally resonant — a track that drifts, dances, and lingers long after it ends.
