Okmog Released New Single "Xier" – A Nostalgic Fusion of 90s House and 50s-Style Vocals
Essenbach, 10th, January 2025 – Music producer Okmog has released his highly anticipated single, Xier, on January 10, 2025, across all major streaming platforms. The track is a masterful blend of 90s house grooves and vintage 50s-inspired vocals, delivering a unique old school vibe that bridges eras with infectious energy.
Taking nearly a year to perfect, Xier underwent numerous revisions to achieve its refined, and final state. The chords draw inspiration from the playful yet slightly dissonant character of 90s house music. To push creative boundaries, Okmog wrote his own custom music software, enabling him to effortlessly explore chords and bring them to life on the keyboard.
The melody and lyrics of Xier are deeply personal, processing Okmog’s reflections on a challenging affair. While the lyrics explore serious themes, the track's upbeat energy and vibrant rhythms emphasize resilience and the brighter side of life.
A pivotal element of Xier is the soulful vocal performance by English vintage singer Chris Weeks. After an extensive search for the perfect voice, Weeks’ timeless style elevated the track to new heights, creating a seamless synergy with Okmog’s nostalgic yet forward-thinking production.
"This song represents a journey for me, both musically and personally," says Okmog. "I wanted to capture the essence of life’s complexities while pointing out the focus on the positive side of life.”
Xier will be available to stream worldwide on January 10, 2025. Follow Okmog on social media for updates, behind-the-scenes content, and more upcoming releases.
