Kina Breaks A Streaming Record With ‘Get You The Moon’

At just twenty-four years old, Kina has achieved a remarkable feat. He has become the first Italian artist to amass a staggering one billion streams with an original composition. This achievement is unparalleled and considering his humble beginnings of self-releasing music on Soundcloud from the quaint town of Naples, it’s all the more impressive. Without a doubt, Kina’s ascent to international fame is down to his distinct style of lo-fi, bedroom pop that the world fell in love with.

Kina’s ‘Get You The Moon’ was released in 2018. Since, it’s infiltrated every corner of the internet. From TikTok trends to Instagram reels to Youtube Lo-Fi accounts, the haunting melodies and unique atmosphere of ‘Get You The Moon’ has been everywhere. Collaborating on this track is the talented writer and vocalist, Snøw, whose tender and introspective vocals seamlessly intertwine with the raw beauty of the composition. The lo-fi atmosphere envelops you as you listen and you get swept up the sweeping guitars and dreamy synths. Snøw’s vocals are an anchor in the ebb and flow of the bass and synths, creating a delicate synergy from start to finish.

Prior to ‘Get You The Moon,’ the idea of a lo-fi producer dominating the mainstream charts was unheard of. Yet, there he stood, claiming the second spot on Billboard's Top TV Songs Chart and maintaining a presence on Spotify's Global Daily Charts for an impressive 450 days. Kina's journey from self-publishing on Soundcloud to global acclaim is a testament to the snowball effect of social media and the incredibly touching lo-fi tunes that Kina creates.
