Electronica trio Karmacoda dedicate their latest track, ‘Unfolded (Put A Little Love)’ to the dizzying rush of having a crush.
Karmacoda aren’t just another band sticking to a single genre; they’re here to shake up the scene, rebelliously interplaying diverse musical styles together to create a sound that harks back to sun-drenched days. Their fusion of electronica, trip-hop, R&B and dream pop expels a danceable groove as they craft a sound that is both modern and emotional, with languid vocals that tug at your heartstrings like a skilled puppeteer.
Now, encapsulating the dizzying rush of having a crush and the moment of telling them how you feel, the trio unveil their latest track, ‘Unfolded (Put A Little Love)’, an ode to those tinges of nervousness as you lay it on the line for that special someone.
Serving us a much-needed snippet of their forthcoming album, Karmacoda—comprised of Jessica (vocals), Brett (vocals and producer) and Eric (bass and unique elements)—weave a tale of vulnerability into a lush soundscape. Sprinkling soulful key atop jazz-infused minimal percussion, hints of trip-hop and an extra layer of seductiveness comes into the mix.
As cinematic synth strings sweep you off your feet, we are immersed into a gooey feeling of smitten goodness. Amidst the chill percussion, Jessica’s soaring sultry vocals sweep the soundscape, dripping with the intoxicating blend of joy, power and the sweet ecstasy of a budding romance.
Jessica shared: “It’s that feel good song with admittance of loving someone and letting them know how you feel. You can’t keep it a secret anymore. You gotta tell them, hoping they will feel the same. Mad crush vibes with a tinge of nervousness, when you finally let the cat out of the bag. Like “are you feeling what I’m feeling?” If so, let’s take this friendship to the next level, and I’m feeling excited so… put a little love in your heart and match me.”
