Published

“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 AlokSigala, 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 CoachellaBonnarooEZoo 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 LegendaryDisney+’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.

Christian Balvig releases gorgeous new album ‘Find And You Will Seek’ in collaboration with Ensemble Hermes.

Published

on

Acclaimed composer and arranger Christian Balvig is known for his work with an array of artists and bands like Jade, Efterklang, Lowly, When Saints Go Machine and Mew, as well as his work with some of the most acclaimed orchestras like Royal Northern Sinfonia (BBC Proms), The Royal Danish Orchestra, Copenhagen Phil, London Contemporary Orchestra, The Danish Radio Broadcast Orchestra and The Norwegian Wind Ensemble.

The cinematic sound on his new album might echo Balvig’s work in the world of film and TV music. Scoring the 2025 Oscar shortlisted short movie ‘Eternal Father’ and the Danish hit series ‘Cry Wolf’ (Ulven Kommer), which has been shown on television in more than 30 countries around the globe, including Channel 4 in the UK. He was also nominated for a Harpa award for ‘Best score’ last year at the Berlinale for ‘The Son and the Moon (Min Arv Bor I Dig)’.

Balvig’s new album, ‘Find And You Will Seek’, backed by Danish string group Ensemble Hermes, grew organically out of this background of experiences and is music that appeals to listeners seeking original, immersive music with space for reflection and contemplation.

‘Find And You Will Seek’ is a collection of chamber works that explore the combination of piano and strings in new ways. Recent single ‘The BirdSuite II – Praesentia’ is part of a 3-part Suite running throughout the record, written and performed on a custom made “Keybird” piano, which is an una-corda (one string pr note) piano that gives a more subtle and intimate sound. On top of it is a lush and emotional string ensemble arrangement with Ensemble Hermes in multiple layers fluctuating in and out of the keybird piano.

Balvig’s second single from the record is ‘What Happened To The World’, an ultra transparent neo-classical inspired piece, with slow melodic structures, a simple chord progression and emotional performance starting with a floating viola solo. It is written from the feeling that the world sometimes goes backwards, and you feel left on the platform wanting to take the train in a different direction.

From film music inspired pieces to experimental chamber music over piano concerto inspired movements, to more neo-classical productions with almost orchestral sounding dubs of strings, ‘Find And You Will Seek’ flows with emotions and lush sound worlds, always with a tangible organic texture.
