Kygo Switches Issues Up For Debut Headline Set At Extremely Music Pageant

5 months in the past, Kygo launched a brand new tune, “Simple” with X Ambassadors. It was okay. However I had some ideas — learn right here.

Now, in March 2022, Kygo simply headlined the Extremely Music Pageant important stage for the primary time and I feel I can confidently say it’s not what anybody anticipated. It was darkish, it was vibey, it was enjoyable and recent. It was not the Kygo we’ve identified who would play piano (although he did deliver it out ultimately) and maintain the vibes comparatively low key.

In fact, there’s one thing to be mentioned about this not being a typical tour set, particularly once you’re headlining the principle stage at a competition that usually expects a sure sound. Regardless, most artists wouldn’t merely compromise their sound to this extent for one present except explicitly billed (assume “DNB Set” from home/dubstep artists).

We nonetheless have but to see if this sound interprets to his subsequent releases, and even different stay units. However for one evening, Kygo fully took our breath away and we’re nonetheless listening to it the subsequent morning.
