Norway based artist 96 Zeus reveals heavenly new single ‘Kids’ featuring Michael Kraun
Returning with vibrant new single ‘Kids‘, 96 Zeus is an exceptional artist with layers of character.
Musically, the track is bathed with reverberated, ethereal vocals, addictive guitar melodies and polished production.
Internally, the track is strong simply because you can put your own interpretation on its message.
Speaking about the breathtaking release, Garrett aka the mastermind behind 96 Zeus shares, “While most of the music I’ve released has had a more ”slow/downtempo” vibe, I thought that I’d want to release a more upbeat song for the summer.
The beat for ”kids” was made back in March, and just a few weeks later I had gotten a verse from my good friend Michael Kraun, who I’ve worked with previously.
I initially tried to get another artist on the song, where it would be two verses from two artists on a beat that I had produced.
Not being able to find the right person, I decided to hop on the song myself. Regarding the question, I find it hard to describe what the song means to me.
I usually write and make music based on how I feel at the time, and as time passes, I can interpret my music in a whole different way than what I initially did.
The lyrics and overall feeling of the song, to me, is just a feeling I had. Since music is subjective and is influenced by personal feelings, I would rather like to hear what my song means to you.”
Sounding like the offspring of The Cure, Smashing Pumpkins and Slowdive, ‘Kids’ is a glistening lo-fi indie number destined to leave the globe wanting more.
