about

India-based producer Popcorn Kid’s collaboration with the Queen of Retrowave LAU is a match made in synth heaven.

Popcorn Kid’s production is far from forgettable… Full of ear candy and subtle details, the song starts with a muted arpeggiated bassline that sets the mood. The sudden rocky guitars, glitchy synths and filtered pads create a patchwork of textures way richer than your average synthwave/retrowave backing track.

LAU’s personal lyrics and vocal delivery are a convincing call for emancipation. There’s only one way out. To go forward and move on.

If this is a taste of things to come, the future of the genre is in good hands.

[LYRICS]

Running wild
Like a thunder in the longest of nights (Time to go)
Say goodbye
You can’t tell and no one knows if you’ll come back
How to beat the pain
How to stop all the thoughts you have (You don’t know)
Where will you end up
Just make sure that you don’t come back
Can you feel your heart
You know that that you can make it (You know you want it more than ever) Thank the stars above
That you’re no longer fading (And now you’re free forever)
Don’t give up
It’s a brand new day, a brand new start (on your own)
No more doubts
You’re the master of your destiny right now
How to beat the pain
How to stop all the thoughts you have (You don’t know)
Where will you end up
Just make sure that you don’t come back
Can you feel your heart
You know that that you can make it (You know you want it more than ever) Thank the stars above
That you’re no longer fading (And now you’re free forever)
Free forever
No one’s gonna get you down
