MKSTN – “Omni Eyes”

/

Glistening synth arpeggios and a spacey, dreamy pop allure dazzle throughout “Omni Eyes,” a new single from Toronto-based producer MKSTN. The third single from his forthcoming album, CONTENT, “Omni Eyes” infuses a lush pop spellbinding with a soaring vocal presence, reminiscent of Tame Impala in its balancing of ethereality with bursting passion. Meanwhile, the trickling keys exude a swaying quality amidst hazy synths that bear a fond likeness to Beach House, particularly as the vocals reach the “days repeat now,” realization.

Featuring an emphasis on namesake’s instrument — the Omni Chord — “Omni Eyes” excels with its captivating sound, further propelled by the featuring of drums and percussion by Chino De Villa (Jessie Reyez) and Braden Sauder (Luna Li).
