Matt’s newest song ‘Koi Pond’ really grabbed our attention and we thought we’d share it with you.
The track is a hazy summer track that features a stunning soundscape of soft synths and percussion with some really catchy and refined lyrics & vocals. The energy builds and builds with this one until you’re eventually at full throttle. This is the type of song that gives you the energy to get through the day, it’s pretty inspiring! Have a listen for yourself.
