NY-based producer and multi-instrumentalist Skinny Atlas teams up with acclaimed vocalist, songwriter and producer Miya Folick to release a new single “Can’t Have It All.” The track is a flip of “Ordinary,” a fan favorite from Folick’s sophomore album ROACH.

Known for his signature sad lofi pop background (the basis of most of his catalog through a year at Nettwerk) Skinny wanted to experiment with new sounds for his next drop. A deep dive through the label roster led him to the indie pop music of rising star Miya Folick.

For Skinny, hearing Folick’s track “Ordinary” brought out a nostalgic feeling and a vivid memory of earlier days in the SoundCloud scene, where producers would flip songs and add their own twist on specific lyrics and melodies. On a whim, he downloaded an audio file of the song with no stems and began to work, presenting it to Miya and her team after already completing his version. This track serves as a mature and definitive stepping stone in his career.

“This song is about slowing down, looking inward, taking time with the people you love,” Folick shares of the original song. “Things don’t have to be a party or a spectacle. They don’t have to be special to feel special. Rather than finding joy in rushing into things, I’m finding joy in patience, in quiet, in getting to know somebody slowly.”
