Modern hip-hop and R&B can often find itself lost in a wash of autotune and repetitive beats, with artists offering pale comparisons to more famous artists that have made names for themselves on Soundcloud or other platforms. Every now and then however, you find yourself met with something compelling and fresh feeling, something that feels pro-active rather than reactive, and that is the thought that comes to mind when hearing latest Kid Travis release ‘Galaxy’.

The track has an immersive soundscape littered with unique, yet engrossing and interesting beats. As a singer-songwriter, instrumentalist and producer Kid Travis has his fingerprints all over all aspects of the track, and all of the aspects of his vision align perfectly. ‘Galaxy’ is a track that showcases the slick sensibilities that Kid Travis has, there are shades of artists such as The Weeknd and Bryson Tiller on show at times, but the sound that Kid Travis has created feels for the most part, unmistakably his own.
