Kyan drops lush gospel-flecked track “L.A.”
Following his stunning previous release “Neighbours”, Cambridge-born artist and Nile Rodgers co-sign Kyan continues his upwards trajectory with “L.A.”
The jittery repetition of suspenseful plucked staccato is mellowed by the gradual introduction of the utterly lavish choral sections and plush strings on the exquisitely-produced “L.A.”
Kyan originally wrote “L.A.” as a love letter to try to win back his then-girlfriend, after being broken up with and dropped by a record label on the same day.
"'L.A.' was never a song I considered would be heard by anyone,” says Kyan, “it was my attempt to try and get a response from my girlfriend. I thought if I sent the words in a song to tell her what I was feeling, perhaps that might provoke a response.
“I look back at my Instagram from that time and the juxtaposition between what I was posting on social media in comparison to how I was feeling is so stark. On the surface I was off to Los Angeles for an incredible trip, meeting the heads of conglomerates, working with multi Grammy-award-winning producers… But on the flip side I was broken and trying to escape after the two biggest losses of my life."
