Released on May 16, 2025, “Designs” is a captivating instrumental piece by American artist Ford Sharpless. With over 25,000 Spotify plays shortly after release, it’s already showing strong promise.

The track is built around a meditative piano mantra that flows steadily throughout, providing a calming yet emotionally charged foundation. Sharpless masterfully integrates vocal samples as melodic textures, adding a unique human touch to the instrumental journey. At moments, brief but beautiful saxophone phrases enter the mix, bringing a subtle sense of nostalgia and depth to the soundscape.

Fresh, melancholic, and deeply immersive — this is the kind of track that feels tailor-made for rainy drives or quiet introspective moments.
