The youthful new British artist, Childe has offered a reimagined version of his debut single, Bad Ideas.

The track resembles a graceful and rawly confident melody and now, Childe releases an alternate stripped-down version of it. Emotionally charged and vastly impactful in its minimal approach, Bad Ideas Mega Dub is a pensive soul ballad marrying deep vocals with sparse beats and subtle instrumentation.

Raised in a rural town in England, Childe had a rare upbringing. His father entered and exited his life with some regularity. He shares:

When I was 14 I went on holiday with my dad. He was supposed to be sober and we agreed that he could drink and I could smoke cigarettes. We cycled along a canal and slept in a tent outside different pubs. On the first night, we went to the pub and then he got me stoned for the first time and I lost my shit. At 2am I woke up and threw up all over the tent and him and he had to clean it up. The exact same happened the next night.
