FROM KID – Sun
aaamusic | On 30, Dec 2013
‘Sun’ opens with lonely electronics, which work beautifully with the video’s journey through natural landscapes to meet a mysterious shirted girl in the forest. With the chorus comes an icaro of drums and piano, a call to the journey’s destination, which builds as the song goes on and is strengthened by the ethereal echo of vocal harmony. The themes of the video and the cold of the electronica feel surreal and dream-like alongside the gentle support of piano and vocal harmony. The song, especially alongside its video, has a distinct narrative quality which grows on the listener. A very intriguing and well constructed single.
