Completely blowing us away with a stellar new single titled “paralysed”, we’re urging everyone out there to dig into Liwuk’s latest. Read on for an in-depth review of the track, in addition to a background on this talented artist.

Based on real life and personal experiences, Liwuk’s newest song “paralysed” is an immediate immersive experience that conceptualizes parts of this artist’s life. Influenced by the dark pop side of Billie Eilish and the atmospheric elements of Hans Zimmer, Liwuk is onto something genius with this latest delivery. If for some reason this is your introduction to the artist, please do yourselves a favor and click that play button as soon as possible.

On the background of the track, the experience specifically is based off an unfortunate bout of sleep paralysis. If you’ve ever gone through it, then you can relate, but even if you haven’t, Liwuk’s deep and contextual lyricism makes it quite easy to understand. While she’s certainly clever in her delivery, there are specific passages that cut through clear as day. We can assume that the first thing you’ll notice when you listen is the sheer beauty of how the music sounds, that’s no surprise, but the most impressive part is her vision and how it was played out.

Currently based out of Harrogate in the United Kingdom, Liwuk’s music transcends her location and provides a platform for all to come together and relate. A sincere recommendation before you dive in would be to listen to this with a nice pair of headphones or sound system in order to not miss out on the subtleties in the mix. The production here is breathtaking and paired with minor effects, she’s showing the world just how exactly an alternative piece of pop should be crafted together. Plain and simple, we’ve quickly come to love this sound and style, but are confident as ever that anyone who listens will feel the exact same.

For now, we’ve included the most important links below in order to listen, follow along, and of course to stay tuned for much more that we hope is on the way. Enjoy!
