KIA Drops "Remote" – A Experimental R&B Vibe That Will Have You in Your Feels

Los Angeles-based "soulwriter" KIA is back with something truly special, and it’s safe to say her latest track, "Remote" featuring Troy Everett, is the kind of experimental R&B we didn’t know we needed. This track is the perfect mix of smooth, soothing vocals and rich, emotive bluesy vibes that will take you on an emotional rollercoaster. If you’re in the mood for something introspective and laid-back, “Remote” is your new go-to.

KIA's Signature Sound: Alternative R&B Meets Soul

KIA is no stranger to making waves in the music scene. The Dutch singer, who calls Los Angeles home, has already made a name for herself with her unique blend of alternative R&B and soul. With a style that’s as deeply introspective as it is smooth, KIA has captivated listeners and critics alike. Her recent success—including winning the John Lennon Songwriting Contest, being featured on a Times Square billboard, and contributing to a Grammy-nominated album—cements her place among the most promising talents in the industry.

But with “Remote,” KIA is taking her artistry to even greater heights. The song blends experimental R&B with a touch of soul, creating an atmosphere that is soothing, but with an underlying depth. The track feels like an intimate conversation, where every note speaks to your soul.

"Remote" – A Perfect Blend of Soulful Vocals and Raw Emotion

If you’ve ever wanted a song that perfectly matches that moody, reflective mood, "Remote" is it. KIA’s vocals take center stage, delivering every line with a sense of vulnerability and power that’s hard to ignore. But it’s the addition of Troy Everett that truly elevates the track. His male vocals complement KIA’s hauntingly smooth delivery, adding a layer of emotional complexity to the song. Together, they create a soulful, bluesy vibe that will hit you right in the feels.

The song's sound is deeply experimental, but with R&B at its heart. It’s not your typical love song; “Remote” is more about the space between two people, the emotional distance, and the longing for connection. KIA and Troy’s harmonies explore this distance beautifully, their voices weaving in and out like two separate worlds slowly coming together. It’s the perfect soundtrack for anyone in a reflective mood or going through their own introspective journey.

Retrospect: KIA’s Journey of Love and Empowerment

“Remote” comes just after KIA’s impressive EP, Retrospect, which delves into themes of love, heartache, and empowerment. While Retrospect captures the complexities of relationships, "Remote" feels like a natural extension of those themes, offering a moment of stillness and emotional depth. It’s clear that KIA’s ability to blend storytelling with rich musical arrangements continues to set her apart in the R&B scene.

With a voice that’s both soothing and empowering, KIA has a way of making the personal feel universal. Whether you’re navigating a complicated relationship or just taking some time for self-reflection, “Remote” will resonate with you on a deeply emotional level.

The combination of KIA’s haunting vocals, Troy Everett’s smooth tones, and the rich, bluesy production will have you hitting replay again and again.
