The Game is the debut track for Perth musician and singer-songwriter RinRin an emotionally charged, hook-laden track brimming with sustained punk-pop allure.
The Philippine-born Australian-based artist is an exceptional musician, and her new track is a breathtaking example of her astonishing guitar prowess. While refining her guitar skills as an advanced student, RinRin was already crafting music in GarageBand on her iPad, replicating game soundtracks, and exploring the technical aspects of modern music production.
After joining Perth emo-rock group Love Me Natalie in 2019 and releasing a series of singles, RinRin is now out on her own. The Game reveals RinRin’s idiosyncratic style and inventiveness at the fore.
The Game adopts J-rock energy with aplomb and fiery intensity and with Spotify streams already over the 30k mark with 9k listeners a month—the largest segments of her audience spread across LA, London and New York—and YouTube views at 19k, The Game’s entrancing effervescent, unrelenting glow has all the raw purity and sublime power to catapult RinRin into the mainstream spotlight.
As RinRin says about the new track, ‘The song is about being blinded by love in a toxic relationship.
‘‘ The Game also contains exciting pop hooks and spirited performances, a blend that leaves you in no doubt that RinRin is a new exciting musical force.
About relationships in general where people manipulate you just to get what they want, taking advantage of the fact that you are always there for them. In the end, you realised they are just playing you and decided to move on with your life without them. So intoxicating when they are just using you to fix their own misgivings in life without even thinking you also have a life to look after.’
The Game also contains exciting pop hooks and spirited performances, a blend that leaves you in no doubt that RinRin is a new exciting musical force. Taken from her upcoming EP due in 2021, The Game is about teen empowerment but it’s also a stirring slice of contemporary music artistry.
