Detroit's vibrant music scene continues to churn out new talents, and one such artist making waves is KiLO. Having first caught the attention of listeners with an electrifying live performance earlier this year, KiLO's journey now marks a significant milestone with the release of his debut EP, titled Intro.

The EP, available for streaming on SoundCloud, features a sonic evolution from KiLO's earlier house music vibes and ambient techno sounds to a more introspective, downtempo aesthetic.

Opening with "Ourobourous," the track invites listeners into an atmospheric realm with over two minutes of cinematic synths. This deliberate pacing sets the tone for the rest of the EP, showcasing KiLO's meticulous approach to production.

Following tracks, such as "Breathe" and "Aether," maintain a seamless flow that emphasizes the EP's cohesive nature. Notably, the track "Soda" features fellow Detroit artist LowKey, who adds a compelling lyrical narrative, further highlighting the collaborative spirit prevalent in the city's music scene.

The concluding track, "Music," introduces a welcome tempo shift with breakbeats, delivering a robust finale that surprises yet feels integrated with the album's earlier themes. KiLO's adaptability and artistic range are evident throughout Intro, suggesting this talented newcomer will continue to captivate audiences.

Listeners keen to explore more about this promising artist are encouraged to check out Intro and support local music scenes, as they often harbor hidden gems like KiLO. For more updates and releases from emerging artists, stay tuned to FUXWITHIT.
