... <p data-start="178" data-end="406">Steven Bonaventure is an English singer-songwriter whose sound fuses alternative R&B with dreamy synthpop influences. His music is defined by soaring vocals, emotionally candid songwriting, and a cinematic sense of production.</p>
<p data-start="408" data-end="526"><strong data-start="408" data-end="420">“Ghosts”</strong> reflects on loss, capturing how the memory of someone can linger and haunt you long after they’re gone.</p>
<p data-start="528" data-end="676"><strong data-start="528" data-end="541">“Trouble”</strong>, the second track from Bonaventure’s <em data-start="579" data-end="589">Delirium</em> EP, explores attraction to danger and the use of self-destructive coping mechanisms.</p>
<p data-start="678" data-end="1073">Bonaventure’s songwriting is forthright and contemplative. This is especially evident on <strong data-start="767" data-end="802">“What Happened to the Dreamer?”</strong> While it’s perhaps the most upbeat track sonically, lyrically it’s the darkest on <em data-start="885" data-end="895">Delirium</em>, with Bonaventure confronting depression and imagining how he might be remembered after he’s gone—who would attend his funeral, and what they would think of the person he was.</p>
