Take a listen to Mai Kino. ‘Burn’ is elegant, delicate and seductive, echoing with sublime tangled vocals and intricate beats. It raises you to a pale blue sky in a second, only to let you free-fall down cliffs of mesmerizing synth-pop beauty and pick you back up as surreptitiously as a springtime breeze.
Mai Kino is small and delicate as much as she is majestic and vibrant. If this first single is representative of the rest of her work, then her name will go down in music history for sure.
