Ashwin Gane on “Way Up”: The Prequel to His Real Story

“Way Up” Wasn’t Made for the Charts. It Was Made for Me.

There’s a moment in every artist’s life where you stop chasing what “works” and just start speaking your truth. That’s what “Way Up” was for me —The One ATG, raw and unfiltered.

I made this record before the noise. Before the pressure. Before people tried to turn me into something I’m not. It’s a song that sounds like clarity. Like finally breathing after holding it in too long. 

No big hook. No forced bars. Just elevation spiritually, mentally, creatively. This isn’t about getting on top. It’s about going deeper. And if you caught that? Then you’re tuned into the frequency I’m building from.
