Following closely on from his third 2021 single in October, ‘Space Boy’ marked a coming of age for Universal Music Canada’s Soran. A turning of the tide is fully in motion as each release sees him expressing even more creative freedom in his songwriting whilst stepping into his full potential as Soran.
Now he gifts fans with a surprise fourth single and final offering of 2021, the electronic alt- pop, sad bop ‘Tired’. Oozing with honesty, this authentic confessional style single adds another piece of the puzzle for Soran, as he continues to unveil his own explorative concoction of alternative RnB, Lo-fi, spacey electronics and buttery soft vocals that detail the finest alternative pop hooks and melodies. Soran is bursting at the seams, ready to carve out his own unique place in the industry.
“The verses are written by the head, the chorus by the heart. I wanted to portray the constant back and forth and confusion that goes into one’s mind after a breakup.”
‘Space Boy’ was a poignant release for the young artist as it not only marked his return but was also an ode to his late mother who sadly passed last August. “That song means so much to me. My mom named me after the anime Space Boy Soran. In Japanese, there are three different alphabets. She decided to write my name as ‘Universe’ in Japan. Lyrically, it’s about a character who goes out to save the world.”
New single ‘Tired’ is the next piece that has slotted perfectly into place as Soran continues to open up, honestly sharing the depths of his thoughts and feelings. Preparing fans for something extra special this 2022, for Soran, the universe is truly the limit.
