KYKO - aka 20-year-old multi-instrumentalist Scott Verrill - is debuting new single "Horizon" on Best Fit.
"Horizon" will appear on the Londoner's upcoming Wildlife short player, and it follows a string of heavy-hitting singles such as "Native" and "Animals".
On "Horizon" Verrill supercharges his big pop ideas and lobs them into a sweltering mix of echoing indie guitars and dance beats. It's an endlessly energetic track with rough edges and brilliantly bold splashes of melody - summer's nearly over, but KYKO is making sure there's reason to keep partying.
The new single is out 2 September via LAB. Verrill's Wildlife EP is due "winter 2016".
