Polarsken 72BPM

I named the track Polarsken which is northern lights in Swedish.

I really enjoy making Lo-fi tracks as they don't have to be "perfect" and can sound "mushy".

Polarsken

2023 has been a successful year for the nomadic Irish artist which has seen his diverse synth-pop sound reach music lovers around the world. Following a unique interpretation of Johnny Logan’s 1980 Eurovision winner 'What’s Another Year' Keelan unveiled electro-pop banger 'Never Wanted
Nobody Else' in October.

Fast forward four weeks and Keelan is once again able to illustrate his chameleonic approach to songwriting, through the atmospheric single Fresh Paint. Hazy and nostalgic yet grooving and contemporary, Keelan seamlessly melds cinematic 80s soundscapes with sleek, modern electropop,
creating a reflective piece of work.

Providing an emotional inner landscape of Keelan’s view of modern life, the singer tackles themes of relationship misfires, boundary setting, self-discovery and defiance. The song’s title alludes to how we metaphorically paint over our own emotional landscape before quickly moving onto the next scenario.

Fresh Paint will be Keelan's final release of the year having already gained support from the likesof BBC Introducing Three Counties & Northants, RTE1, 2XFM, Today FM, The Vinyl District, Synthpoplover, Hot Press, Sunday Times, Side-Line Magazine and Electricity Club, The Keelan X Band debut headline gig is at The Workman's Club Cellar, 26/11/23.

Fresh Paint is out on 17th November 2023.

Flowing at 741 Hz, this progressive deep house track awakens the throat chakra, clearing energy and freeing the voice of truth. ‘Ти — вільна’ weaves mystic Ukrainian female vocals with hypnotic beats, inviting you to release what no longer serves and speak your freedom into existence
