King Casio

King Casio releases playful lo-fi pop single 'So Much More' produced by Oli Barton Wood. The track slides seamlessly between nursery rhyme and melancholia, showing us a deeper side to King Casio, whilst a child-like sense of wonder remains.

King Casio AKA Aaron King says the song is about: 'the sense of restless frustration I feel. On one hand, the song yearns for "something more pure," echoing my desire to understand how people operate and to help those around me. However, "the walls are padded white and pink" implies a sterile, controlled environment. It is here that I feel the song conveys the paradox. While on one hand, a sense of control can lead to us feeling safer, it can also null our sense of freedom and creativity—a sense of being stuck and not giving a shit.'

'So Much More' is the first single from King Casio's upcoming debut album 'Passing Time With King Casio' which is due for release in the spring. The album is inspired by Harry Nilsson's 'The Point'. 2024 will also see King Casio supporting friend and collaborator L.A. Salami.

King Casio's charming lo-fi sound has been championed by the likes of John Kennedy at Radio X, KCRW and The Line Of Best Fit.
