Akimi's gorgeous vocal performance on her new release "distant strangers" teeters between vulnerable and sensual in such a captivating manner.
The sound of This German-American singer-songwriter can be described as an emotive concoction between neo-soul, r&b, jazz, and hip-hop. She particularly takes a plunge into neo-soul on "distant strangers", and her lyricism takes us through the story about the people who decide to leave your life without notice - something we can all relate with. Her soothing vocals are complemented by glittery piano arrangements and a hushed, steady rhythm section that pulls the listener into its groove.
Akimi shares, "Distant Strangers is about the people who decide to leave your life without notice. Teetering between giving the benefit of the doubt and swiftly cutting off whatever seems like it could be too much of a risk, you pride yourself in your acquired sense of caution. A new mindset— even my closest friend could be a distant stranger."
