Rexhits really is the sound of east meets west, orient meets Occident, traditional verses contemporary. Having studied music of a more traditional kind as a young man in Shanghai, it was stumbling across the electric guitar which saw his world outlook shift and he set out on a path that would eventually find him with a masters degree from Georgia Tech in one hand and the dream of being an independent artist in the other. Yeah, I know is the first taste of his planned debut album.
Built on a jigsaw of sonic pieces from opposite worlds, the exotic sounds of his youth, his embracing of contemporary music, his studies on two different continents, Yeah, I Know is a slick Indie-pop track. It grooves and pops, it is sassy and seductive, it is the sound of modern club culture, the feel of urban life and the buzz of being alive. More than that, between its more obvious qualities it reveals something of the story of the composer himself.
