Imagine if that song didn’t just talk about togetherness but made it feel radical, urgent and absolutely necessary. Well it does, and the artist doing it right now is Mike Cykoski, under his project A Is for Atom.
His latest single, “Closer,” is proof that holding on can be an act of rebellion. The track opens with a subtle, restless pulse that might feel familiar at first, but it quickly draws you in with its layering shimmering guitars and electronic textures over a rhythm that’s both steady and alive.
