KYIKI is sharing brand new single "Here For" on Best Fit.
KYIKI is Ellie Fletcher, a vocalist with Crystal Fighters, who has been striking out solo as an electronic producer/songwriter. She's been working hard with Sad Boys’ Yung Gud and Alex Da Kid, in Stockholm and L.A..
"Here For" follows the attention-grabbing tracks "One" and "Black Light", and sees Fletcher toy with dark forces. This latest offering nods to trip-hop titans like Lamb and Portishead; it's an intoxicating elixir of gaspy vocals, ritualistic beats, and solemn synths that darts and weaves through shadows. Fletcher shows off another fascinating side to KYIKI with "Here For".
Listen to the track below.
