In 2021 Kosmo Kooper is making his debut as a solo artist. He combines Retro, Synthwave and New Wave with modern elements. His sound is a call-back to the big 80s records you love. Huge drums. Phat bass lines. Atmospheric synths. Paired with an outstanding voice and heartfelt lyrics. Nostalgia at its best. Heavy Rain is the follow-up to his critically acclaimed Single Oh Brother, which gained plays in over 70 countries within a few weeks after release.
‘Like most people I start looking for shelter when the rain comes. But sometimes you have to put
yourself right in the center of the storm. And while the water runs down your face and body, it takes off all the dirt from the past until your true self begins to show, literally washing your pain away. To me that’s the heart of the song.’
Musically Heavy Rain starts off with a vintage drum machine groove and builds up to a big chorus with almost gospel like choirs and huge acoustic drums in reminiscence of classic acts like Phil Collins.
