"Find A Way" is, was and will always be the first song that Joakim started on his "Nothing Gold" album sessions; the spring of the albums seasons, if you will. But, in the good old tradition of ‘Art imitates life, life imitates art’ the purpose of the track became lost and was subsequently scrapped. It was not until Joakim had realized a concept for his third studio album, built the entire album around it and completed all recordings and mixes, that the lyrics for ‘Find A Way’ came to him, breathing life back into the song, and finding it’s way back onto the album that it originally launched.
Arguably one of the most catchy songs on the album "Find A Way" still manages to be sophisticated, a theme that Etienne Jaumet (Zombie Zombie) wanted to explore in his questioning to Joakim for the album PR: “The production and arrangements on your record reach a certain level of sophistication and shows a deep knowledge of music, something rare in « Pop Music » in France, which sometimes makes me think of Steely Dan... Do you think your music is aimed at some kind of music elite? No, I don't believe making sophisticated music means it's aimed at sophisticated people. My goal has always been to reach people, as much people as possible, to make music that has something universal.
Replete with remixes from Soul Clap, possibly the most in-demand and hottest remix team around today, up-and-coming cosmic disco/house stalwart John Talabot and Marble/Sound Pellegrino's cousin Das Glow with his mad futuristic techno. In this sense "Find A Way" joins a tradition of Joakim songs such as ‘Are You Vegatarian’ that are often designed to be the comic relief in an album but go on the be the timeless classics that DJ, Music Lovers and Artist find their way back to time and time again.
