The debut single “KO” and video from�LatinX and Los Angeles based cinematic�electronic�meets synth pop artist Sounds of Walker is out now.�
The single was�written on an hour-long sunset flight�between Bangkok and Koh Samui,�Thailand.�He confides, “As I saw what seemed to be hundreds of tiny islands strewn across the horizon, shimmering like stars in the sun’s orange glow, I had a strong feeling that we all are like those tiny islands.
Whole worlds within, fully sustained, but yet connected in so many ways.��”KO” explores the transformative power of self-discovery and personal strength. It encourages surrendering to vulnerability and resisting societal norms of what you “should be.”�
With a sonic journey spanning through the archives of time and traversing the far reaches of global soundscapes, Sounds of Walker commands a musical realm where time and space bow to evocative soundscapes and unfiltered lyrical tales.
No illusions here � only music that resonates as eerily familiar, ensnares with hypnotic allure, and consumes with emotional intensity. Kind of like deja vu.
Sounds of Walker beckons you into a realm where Milan de la Rocha, the enigmatic architect of this sonic tapestry, has been summoning melodies since his tender days at the piano. With a repertoire that embraces guitar, bass, drums, and an array of instruments cultivated over the decades, Milan’s musical essence flows from his Cuban and Mexican lineage, where rhythm pulses through his veins.
As a first-generation Latino thriving amidst the vibrant landscape of Los Angeles, Milan’s life mirrors the metropolis itself, a crucible of diverse cultures and influences. It’s this rich mosaic that ignites his fervor to craft music that transcends the boundaries of time and culture. Truth is, every person’s heart has a beat.
His debut single “KO” was written on an hour-long sunset flight�between Bangkok and Koh Samui, Thailand.�He confides, “�As I saw what seemed to be hundreds of tiny islands strewn across the horizon, shimmering like stars in the sun’s orange glow, I had a strong feeling that we all are like those tiny islands.
Whole worlds within, fully sustained, but yet connected in so many ways.��”KO” explores the transformative power of self-discovery and personal strength. It encourages surrendering to vulnerability and resisting societal norms of what you “should be.”
The lyrics convey a deep emotional connection with one’s self, urging not to be held back by external forces or negativity. The truth is, inspiration and strength begins from within.” The song is a cinematic�electronic-drenched synth pop journey of sound.
Sounds of Walker invites us to walk into the music and towards the sounds of dreams.�
