Feel Nothing: KDX refuses to shiver as his energy grows within the pain on H.O.S

Posted on 19 May 2023

Taken off the much-awaited 7-track Amor Fati album, KDX shows us what it feels like when those dark demons storm in like a vicious hurricane that refuses to relent no matter the cruelty involved on H.O.S.

KDX is a Galway, Republic of Ireland-based indie hip-hop artist who is an underground poet who creates emotional experiences to be genuinely mesmerized inside like a dark vortex.

Influenced by XXXTENTACION, Kendrick Lamar, and Tupac, KDX drops a superb experience to excite even the sleepiest cats roaming the streets. Deep in the mountains of West Ireland, we find a stunning single to light up many candles with.

“Amor Fati has one main goal, this is to be an instrument in the healing process of anyone who can relate. We all hurt but moving forward is key, I think Rusty Chainz does well to set this atmosphere.” KDX explains.

H.O.S from Galway, Republic of Ireland-based indie hip-hop artist KDX is a decision-making demon-slaying knockout kinda song which deserves a few listens to truly appreciate the haunting brilliance on offer. This a soaring sizzler to warm up with when the world feels so cold. There is hope.

ROFI JAMES HAVE RELEASED THEIR NEW SINGLE ‘EVERYTIME I MAKE YOU HATE ME’

Posted on 27 April 2020

Irish indie rock band Rofi James released their new single ‘Everytime I Make You Hate Me’ on April 24th 2020, an alternative pop effort that follows the success of their previous debut singles ‘Fools For Your Love’ and ‘Open Eyes’.

‘Everytime I Make You Hate Me’ is a compelling combination of the best indie pop and indie rock influences of the last decade, with its melodies sounding original and fresh among the contemporary alternative scene.

The song presents a range of pads and rhythmic guitars that broaden the sound both in the verses and choruses, and grows even wider with the balanced pop drums resulting in a almost epic harmony. The little crunch in the vocals perfectly suits the sweetness of the overall song, a fantastic contrast that will immediately catch your ear.

Head over to Spotify and listen to ‘Everytime I Make You Hate Me’.
