Fans of Dominic Fike and Jaden will most likely fall in love with rising newcomer ODDGHXST.
Splitting his time between London and Hamburg, this artist’s approach to music-making centres around experimenting with different genres and styles of production, rather than focusing on one particular sound.
‘Running Away’ is the musician’s latest single, and presents listeners with a sincere and honest piece of alt-pop that is lyrically inspired by the importance of understanding ourselves. Elaborating further on the song’s meaning, ODDGHXST says:
“It’s a song about finding ones self. Being lost over and over again whether thats because of yourself or something else being the reason. Regardless, being more in touch with ones own emotional side and not rejecting it completely, but not letting it control your mindset and your actions either. Running away was something I used to do a few years before in my life, but I began to acknowledge my flaws and mistakes. Not hating them or ignoring their existence, but acknowledging them and learning to live with them. Stress, pain, hate, love, life, etc. all these things being human, but finding a balance. So, I wanted to write a song about my old self and looking back at how much I have evolved as a human being and as a person. It’s a bit hard to explain in words, but this song gave me a proper feeling on these topics.”
ODDGHXST’s songs have been streamed more than a million times on Spotify alone, and momentum continues to grow with each new release. This is most definitely an artist to watch for.
