Retro Kid – “Think I Know”

Sometimes the catchiest tunes have the best back stories. Case in point is “Think I Know” from UK born, Danish based Retro Kid. “Think I Know;” probably about someone suspecting their lover is cheating on them, or maybe knowing… the plot to the next Game of Thrones novel? Nope, in this case it’s inspired by his sassy toddler who enjoys putting his socks in the dishwasher.   The track itself is dandy of an indie electronica song with a sick beat to boot. Tight drums do a lot of the heavy lifting along with swirly synths and ear-tickling effects that are reminiscent of Zero 7 or Still Corners. I love the wholesomeness which adds, rather than detracts, from the overall presentation.   You can hear “Think I Know” below from Soundcloud or over on Spotify. The year is still early, with an EP on the way in the near future.[...]

Retro Kid – “The Room”

“We’ve all been in a room with no way out. Whether it be in relationships or falling back into bad habits.” Copenhagen’s Retro Kid embodies that itchiness perfectly with this indietronica-meets-soul jam called “The Room.” Full of Korg minilogue synth splashes, samples from soul music, and a TR-8 drum machine, “The Room” feels timeless AND retro while still retaining the urgency of 2021-era bedroom-pop. The song is ultimately built around a deep groove, and despite it’s lyrical ennui, is definitely danceable. Fans of Metronomy, Tame Impala, and Justice will enjoy this a lot.

Retro Kid – “Neon Colours”

“Neon Colours” from Copenhagen-based electronic pop foursome Retro Kid is a weightless, mesmerizing breath of euphoria. The lyrics don’t say much, but all the while they say everything the song should, with thought-provoking talk of “the sound of nostalgia.” The song also has a rare but sought-after effect that makes it seem long-lasting despite its ephemeral length.
