Wiji Kun
Talk about the true meaning of bedroom pop, producer and artist Wiji Kun creates amazing songs within his modest bedroom. Yup, you heard me, from his bedroom!
Wiji Kun is truly serving as an inspiration to many aspiring artists as he continues to break down barriers in the music industry. He shows us that music can be created anywhere, anytime. Sometimes we mistakenly think we need to be in the perfect place, have all the equipment, be in the "mood", to do what we aspire to do, but the truth is that everyone experiences resistance when creating art or doing a task. Wiji Kun shows us how passion knows no barriers, that even in quarantine we can still pursue and achieve our passions, despite quarantine feeling cyclic at times.
With his newest single “Quarantine Zone“ is the perfect song to jam when you are in your room and in the mood to have a party for 1, when going on a long car drive at night, or even when you just want to chill. The song is reminiscent of artists such as Joji and other bedroom pop synth music. Its catchy synth waves are electric and its relatable lyrics can make you feel like you aren’t alone.
"I've been stuck behind this quarantine zone inside my head
it gets lonely and the only other company I've got is me"
You could truly feel the artist showing us his vulnerability expressed in the form of lyrics. Wiji shows us how we can use our creativity as a way to express or even release the emotions we feel inside. In return, this vulnerability has made the song all the more relatable as we’ve all gone through ups and downs with this quarantine.
With over 290 monthly listeners on Spotify, this singer and producer continue to serve us more of his amazing bedroom pop tunes in the future.
"There's just a whole bunch of stuff I've been working on and I've been saving up stuff that's cooked enough to hit stores/ I'm super excited to let them go, I literally have to restrain my impatience because I want to do things the right way."
