KANAGAWA INVADER

The first release from Rio di Janeiro-based record label, Reverse Collective, is the explosive new tune from Kanagawa. ‘Invader’ brings indie and electro-pop together to form a synth-heavy tour through masses of catchy melodies. Kanagawa has tamed auto-tune into an artistic effect rather than something intrusive, and uses impressive production skill to craft an addictive auditory palette. He explains that “From the first moment I started working on this track, I had a very strong perception of how I wanted it to sound. The song itself is built on imagery.” Be on the lookout for Kanagawa’s Love, Laugh, Lie or Cry album, releasing in late 2020. -Dan Peeke
