Equipt with a mellow interlude and jarring, avant-garde synth smudges. Textured and vogue as hell, cozy kev takes listeners on a cosmic trip to the future. As the album hurtles through space and time with its laid-back valor, it becomes glaringly evident that Cozy Kev is next up in the world of experimental, alternative dance music.

GALVANIC & DLJ - DEAD MAN
Music, Original MixCommentFollowing their collaborative single “666,” Lo-fi producer Galvanic and Singer/songwriter/producer DLJ unite once again to drop another minimalist electro-R&B cut “Dead Man.” Celebrated artists quickly amassing millions of streams across their respective discographies "Dead Man" is a narcotic, stark, and shadowy single that explores the unwelcome symptoms of the human experience. Combining the musical elements of electronic, indie, and hip-hop, "Dead Man" is a place where poetry and pain collide. Its stripped-back nature is hypnotizing, allowing the powerful lyrical content to reign high above the beautifully simplistic production.
