The track follows her first 2021 release mm+i
Bold, unpredictable and unabashedly fun, latest serin oh release ‘icarus?’ has all of the hallmarks of an alternative pop classic.
The track has a truly infectious energy from its offset, with the South Korea-born artist crafting a colourful and exciting soundscape for her existential lyrics. ‘icarus?’ is about the same issues that the titular character faced, albeit on a very different scale. The question of whether to settle for stability or risk it all going for more, especially as an artist.
The end result is a multi-faceted and thoughtful release that showcases serin oh’s genre-skipping deftness and her innate ability to create thoroughly memorable and unique works, judging from this, the young artist’s fate will be different to that of her muse.
