Moore Kismet Releases “three little words” The New Single is A Vibrant Love Anthem for 2023
“three little words” is really about falling in love with or still having love for someone you know you shouldn’t be in love with, but you just can’t help it. With Valentine’s Day coming up, I know that a lot of people (myself included) may be spending it alone. I really wanted to make something that anyone could listen and relate to you because love is not an easy thing to find.” – Moore Kismet
As we ready ourselves for Valentine’s Day next week, the now 18-year-old visionary Moore Kismet drops their latest single “three little words” via Thrive Music/Virgin Music – listen now HERE via your preferred DSP. The vibrant love anthem features Anna Dellaria and is filled to the brim with colorful synths, crisp percussive hits, and a captivating and diverse sonic soundscape. The new single follows last month’s release of Moore Kismet’s 2023 showcase, SEE EVERY COLOR – a 23-minute mix that has them sharing some of the best music they’ve ever made and all unreleased – listen HERE. It also follows last fall’s glitchy uplifting single “Forte” and a high-profile remix of “All By Myself” featuring Alok, Sigala, and Ellie Goulding.
Moore Kismet is coming off an epic 2022 that included the worldwide debut of their widely acclaimed studio album UNIVERSE. The year saw the Southern California born and raised, non-binary, and pansexual producer, songwriter, composer, DJ, and artist rack up more than 20 MILLION streams, play massive festivals including Coachella, Bonnaroo, EZoo and Tomorrowland and headline their first ever tour. They’ve garnered support from some of the biggest media platforms in the world, were included in Billboard’s “21 Under 21” for a 3rd year in a row, graced the cover of Pollstar – the leading trade publication for the concert and live music industry, and they were interviewed by NPR’s The Takeaway for the show’s ongoing series “Black.Queer.Rising” – “highlighting Black Queer people’s impact on American culture and society.” In addition, Kismet’s music was sought after for TV and games resulting in syncs for HBO Max’s series Legendary, Disney+’s The Rookie, and Epic Games’ Fortnite while they were tapped to create original music for Marvel’s Snap launch.
Having risen to the top of the US electronic music scene at the age of 17 — the now 18-year-old is poised for another big year. Their unique production style and stage presence has always set Kismet apart from the crowd.

Aaron Koenig Releases Ska Anthem for Geeks
Aaron makes music about meaningful topics that rocks and grooves – and sometimes it even skanks on a rock steady beat!
His new song ‘Geeks’ has been released on all major music platforms on November 15th. It is an anthem for the heroes of the digital age: computer nerds, also known as geeks. It is driven by an off-beat ska guitar, a sticky bass line and a groovy brass section. The icing on the cake is a jazzy saxophone solo.
“I have always loved Ska, I even saw the Specials, the Selecter and Madness live in their heydays”, says Aaron. “I chose the topic although I am not a geek myself, but I have a lot of sympathy for them. Geeks are often frowned upon because they can be socially awkward, but they are the ones who are building a better world. So I think they deserve an anthem.”
The music video is mostly made up of typography, minimalistic ASCII graphics and heavily pixelated images – it surely looks geeky! Watch it here:
Aaron writes catchy songs that are made for people who like meaningful, uplifting topics and guitar-driven, hand-made sounds. His musical journey started young but it wasn’t until he discovered Bitcoin and became so invested in it that he used music to express his new found joy.
“It’s mostly rock music, with excursions into funk, soul and other styles I grew up with. In general, it’s guitar-driven and hand-made, often with a punkish energy and beatlesque harmonies. What all my songs have in common are meaningful lyrics about being in the here and now, about transforming disturbing emotions into wisdom, about being in the flow, things like that.” says Aaron in an interview.
“I have always been making music and writing songs, starting with a punk rock band when I was 15. However, I never saw it as a career. I played in several bands in my teenage years and my early twenties, but after my media studies in Berlin and Rio de Janeiro I focused on other things. I first worked in TV production and then founded one of the first Internet agencies in Germany. I discovered Bitcoin in 2011 and became fascinated by it. I wrote five books about it, made lots of promotional videos and educational series for Bitcoin and blockchain companies, and organised events. I even wrote some songs about Bitcoin, which became quite popular in the community, like my Reggaeton about the Bitcoin Beach in El Salvador. People always liked that my songs are catchy and provocative. It was by the end of 2023 that I decided to go full in on music. It’s what I enjoy the most, so now I want to fully follow my passion.”
Since May 2024, his songs have been streamed more than 250,000 times on Spotify and his music videos have been viewed more than 350,000 times on YouTube.
