If you heard Lontalius‘ last single ‘All I Wanna Say’ then you might be wondering if you’re listening to the same person on ‘Kick In The Head.’ On ‘All I Wanna Say,’ the singer-producer created a rough electronic landscape that was all moody and reminiscent of the King of Doom Electronica, James Blake.
