Kiwiani’s new release, ‘Close’, is a beautiful piece of experimental electronic music that offers both depth and energy. Leaning heavily into textured soundscapes, Kiwiani merges ambient tones with more structured beats, creating a hypnotic track that pulls the listener into a swirling sonic world. The layered sound design, paired with his signature chill trap beats, gives ‘Close’ an almost meditative feel, with just the right amount of unpredictability to keep listeners engaged.
The song’s highlight is Kiwiani’s use of granular synthesis, which he mentioned as a driving factor in the track’s creation. By manipulating the sound at a micro level, he achieves a fascinating balance of precision and chaos. The pitched, chopped vocals enhance this effect, adding a ghostly layer that feels alive and organic. It’s easy to get lost in the textures Kiwiani builds here, as he expertly shifts between soothing rhythms and sporadic, unexpected beats, resulting in a track that feels both familiar and novel.
Having caught the attention of major editorial playlists like Spotify’s Bass Arcade, Kiwiani is no stranger to widespread acclaim, and ‘Close’ will likely further elevate his profile. The support from artists like San Holo and Rynx shows just how respected his sound is within the industry. Tracks like ‘Close’ demonstrate why—Kiwiani doesn’t merely create beats; he crafts an immersive experience that invites listeners to explore every detail.
Beyond the music, Kiwiani’s visuals enhance the experience. His audio-reactive visualizer promises to be as atmospheric as the song itself, adding a layer of depth to his work and reflecting his dedication to a holistic artistic experience. It’s this attention to detail that makes Kiwiani’s artistry so appealing; he’s not just producing music but inviting fans into his world.
In ‘Close’, Kiwiani showcases the very best of his experimental prowess, and his fans are here for it. The single is a solid example of his growth as an artist, blending the familiar with the avant-garde and giving us a taste of where he might head next.
