Upbeat and vibrant from beginning to end, Angry Pete has done it once again on his latest single release, “Losing My Favourite Game”. Please read on for an in-depth look into this track, in addition to a background on this talented artist.


Currently based out of Germany, Angry Pete is a synth-pop artist incorporating a ton of different elements into his incredibly unique and inspired sound. On his newest single “Losing My Favourite Game”, he’s put together an unbelievably colorful performance that shows off his immense instrumental skills, highlights his passionate vocals, and is serving as a perfect first impression for those who are unfamiliar with his music. Do yourselves all a favor and please give this one a spin when you can.


What initially started off as a fun bedroom project has evolved into a solo project for Angry Pete that has captured an energetic audience. On the background of this song, the artist has stated he’s “telling a story about the existential vagueness of life. Navigating the murky path ahead while having scattered thoughts about existence and doubts about the authentic self”. While you might have your focus shifted by the instrumentals, we would still encourage everyone to actually make connections within the lyricism here, especially because the songwriting is heavily flying under the radar. However, we can still virtually guarantee you’ll either be humming or singing along by the end of your first playthrough.


At right around four minutes in length, a standout for us was that this song has more than enough going on and has the opportunity to expand and breathe. The pop elements are there front and center, but where Angry Pete is differentiating himself in the pack is the close attention to detail in every other facet. A sincere recommendation would be to enjoy this with a nice pair of headphones, because the subtleties in the production truly pop in an enclosed listening. You’ll encounter inventive basslines, hidden beats, and complexities that take it all to another level. If anything, it’ll have you dig around his growing discography for more slices of gold just like this one.
