The New Citizen Kane has seen music as something much more than a collection of tunes. Through conceptual storytelling, dream mythology, visual art, electronic pop, and intensely personal songwriting, he has been building a vast creative universe. "Metallic" seems like it's the most intimate and emotionally revealing chapter yet.
"Metallic" is the opening gateway to FREE TO FEEL, the first episode of the massive four-part PSYCHEDELIKA Pt.2 project, setting up themes of awakening, desire, survival, and release with startling confidence. The track doesn’t offer easy answers, but instead welcomes the uncertainty and invites the listener to feel emotion instead of trying to control every outcome. This core notion adds a freshness of independence to the music. In an age where identity is sometimes dictated by demands and continual visibility, "Metallic" champions a more instinctual outlook, embracing presence, creativity, attraction, and possibility. It’s a thoughtful idea that’s contemporary and intensely personal without being unreachable.
The track comes with a music video shot in São Paulo, where the metropolitan landscapes serve as the perfect setting for a story full of movement, romance, self-expression, and lively late-night energy. The visual presentation contributes to the emotional ambiance of the track and enlarges the wider artistic universe around the release.
"Metallic" works because it feels like the beginning of something important, not a solitary release. Every decision of creation is a step towards a greater vision that is still to be fully realized with intention and creativity.
