YOU’LL LISTEN, DANCE, SMILE, AND REFLECT ALL IN ONE DEEP HOUSE ALBUM!
With his latest EP, Could Have Been, The New Citizen Kane takes us on a journey that’s as introspective as it is danceable. Moving away from the shimmering vibes of his summer hit Endless Summer Serenade, Kane dives deeper into the raw, emotional terrain of love, loss, and nostalgia, crafting an EP that masterfully blends indie-pop, electronic beats, and the wistful echoes of 80s new wave.
The title track, Could Have Been, opens the EP with a bittersweet melody and evocative lyrics: “Do you think about it? Do you think about me?” Kane’s heartfelt delivery pulls you into the universal longing of wondering about the paths not taken. It’s a song that doesn’t just sit with you, it lingers in your soul.
Then comes Forget The World, a warm, pulsating track that offers an irresistible escape. Its catchy hooks and lush instrumentation feel like a joyful sigh of relief, capturing the beauty of living in the moment. Whether you’re lost in its rich electronic beats or inspired by its lyrics to seize the day, this song is pure euphoria.
The EP’s most daring moment comes with Kane’s electrifying cover of Coldplay’s Talk. Reimagined as a deep house anthem, the track pulses with energy, bringing the emotional depth of the original into a neon-lit dance floor glow. It’s bold, joyful, and utterly unforgettable.
Other standouts include Tonight, Maybe, a hopeful exploration of uncertainty, and Chasing the Past, a haunting reflection on fading connections, complete with bold vocal effects that amplify its emotional punch. These tracks showcase Kane’s unparalleled ability to weave relatable stories into mesmerizing soundscapes.
Could Have Been is an emotional and sonic journey that underscores Kane’s evolution as an artist. It’s also a prelude to his highly anticipated 2025 album, Morpheus, promising even more introspection and dreamlike soundscapes.
For fans of deep house, indie-pop, or anyone who loves music that makes you feel, Could Have Been is unmissable. This is the artist at his most vulnerable, dynamic, and creative state, it’s just a true testament to his artistry. Needless to say, Could Have Been absolutely deserves a spot on your playlists!
