MIK - Doppio Passo
In vino veritas. When the deep look into the glass leads to rampant confessions of love, we know, our friend Melancoly was a guest. Hamburg newcomer MIK has released his new single Doppio Passo, which combines beauty and sadness into a masterpiece.
Only last year he started his solo project MIK. In his songs, the artist processes stories from everyday life. Stories that can affect anyone.
"Most of my songs start with a basic feeling. This time it was the tension between feeling lost and closeness. Inhibitions and insecurities that, after a few glasses of wine, fade further and further into the background. This song was written alone in my kitchen after a long night." MIK
Together with producer Jakob Jürgens, MIK implements this emotional journey between intoxication, clarity and honesty through acoustic and electronic accents. Against the minimalist guitar accompaniment, MIK's vocals soar in a dreamy, melancholic longing. It subtly rises into a vocoder chorus, but remains true to its roots.
Soft in the finish it should remain, he says. Like a sip from Apulia.
Just one more Doppio Passo... And then everything is good again.
