Since the release of her sophomore album Isolation in 2018, Kali Uchis has featured on several tracks and even released some catchy tunes, such as her song “Solita.” Today she is back her new EP To Feel Alive.
A few days ago Uchis took to Instagram to tease the new EP, telling her fans that she had recorded it alone in her room while isolated during COVID-19: “recorded all of it alone, in my room, last week bcoz i won’t roll out my real album right now, but wanna give my babies Something.” The EP serves as a precursor to her much anticipated third studio album.
To Feel Alive spans 10 minutes with just 4 tracks that are packed with dreamy, electric synth-infused sounds that complement her wistful singing. The opening track “Honey baby (SPOILED!),” sets the tone for the entire EP with its hazy meloncholic instrumental arrangement.
The cover art was painted by London-based artist Oh de Laval. She explained the image in her Instagram caption stating, “art is isolation era eating por vida era of me.”
