Kahnin has recently released his latest song ‘Hollystick’ and created a matching colorful video that sent people’s minds to work. The song question what we think is real and makes us wake up to embrace the fact that the information we have is fake. In today’s world full of fake news and fake information “Hollystick” resonates with anyone searching for truth.
The song is actually powered by some of the most common music stars. Portishead’s Clive Deamer along with Radiohead and Alicia Keys’s drummer, Dylan Wissing, provides thundering beats: Drums. Leo Abrahams (Miley Cyrus, Brian Eno) performs on intricate guitar and contributes both additional depths and counterpoints, while Kahnin himself plays bass, keys, and sings. Sefi Carmel also handled the song’s production.
This storyline in the track can perfectly be adopted from the music video for the song. The use of a time traveler riding through the earth that appears inactive but is just about to wake up is evident in this picture. The video is shot in Japan and tells about the specificities and absurdity of contemporary world through the personal experience of Kahnin. This is evoked by the great visuals that are used in tandem with the song as well as the great evolving blurbs that are so aligned with the song’s message.
As the time traveler watches the other encounters the vain and frequently conflicting scenes around him, the video transforms into a geographical approach of the procedure of comprehending that most of the things that are depicted, may not be the complete reality. The song and the video are inherently interconnected and yield a package that once again will interest the listener musically and visually. ‘Hollystick’, is a lot more than just good music, it comes with a message, a way of making people reconsider the world they are living in.
