British multi-instrumentalist and producer Bradley Miller, known as cktrl, has released his stunning new single “balance.” Following his acclaimed EP yield, the South London artist returns with a track that glows with soulful depth and musical precision. Layering warm horns, delicate strings, and intricate rhythms, “balance” feels meditative and immersive, guiding listeners into a space of reflection and renewal.
“Taking the time to truly notice has given me tools for growth,” cktrl shares. “Our spirit is light, and without it we’re just in the dark. There’s a beauty in nuances in life, especially when you look at how we’re shaped by our experiences. I want to keep healing through my music and I hope others find the same solace in it too.”
With “balance,” cktrl continues his journey of merging sound and spirit, drawing from jazz, classical, ambient, and R&B traditions to create something entirely his own. The song stands as a moment of clarity and calm, shaped by his mastery of tone and texture.
A self-taught producer and classically trained clarinetist of Jamaican and Montserratian heritage, cktrl continues to redefine contemporary sound. His work explores love, identity, and emotional honesty through an unmistakably personal and culturally rooted lens, solidifying his place as one of music’s most introspective and visionary artists.
