Upcoming artist KOATES was born into a music-mania, Buddhist family in South East London. With both parents in bands often away touring, he found himself navigating through teenage mayhem on his own. Almost married at 18, it was a close shave at the registry office. This set him up for some pretty unique, emotionally intelligent (in hindsight) songwriting where he ventures into worlds of dark places that emerge hopeful. KOATES is best described as ‘pop-noir’, taking influence from old and new. A hybrid of pop and electronic music with a whole lot of soul. ‘The music has got a wicked flow to it. He is one to get ingrained deep, deep into your head’ – Jack Saunders (BBC Radio One). Following the release of his newest single “Another Life”, he projects a vibrant sound that will surely intrigue your ears. Starting with bright instrumentation leading onto his sweet and luscious vocals he completes the song entirely. Explaining the track a bit further it’s based on the everyday decisions we make that can affect our relationships positively or negatively. Get it wrong and we face blow-outs, door-slamming and worse, we just wish we had done things differently. Get it right and it’s the best feeling in the world!. To the vocals and production, this single will certainly have you dancing. Being just great for a drive during sunset or a day out by the beach. Go stream “Another Life” and check out his discography which is filled with astounding music.
