‘Out of Breath’ is the new debut single by Philip Bæk Hedegaard which is a “burnout-anthem” and deals with themes like overthinking and fear


Out of Breath is the title of Philip’s debut single which was released on the 30th of April 2021.

The song is a kind of “burnout-anthem”, which deals with themes like overthinking and the fear of not being able to live up to your own expectations. These thoughts are in many ways a sign of these crazy times we are living in, where Corona virus and a seemingly endless lockdown has made it difficult to remain optimistic. Furthermore it touches upon how it may seem as if you “have it all in your hands”, and have everything figured out (for example on social media), when in reality you are struggling to pick yourself up and keep going.

Philip is the 22-year-old danish singer and songwriter Philip Bæk Hedegaard, who fell in love with music when he got his first guitar at the age of 13. After years of intensive and disciplined practice, and a dream of attending the Royal Danish Academy of Music as a guitarist, he discovered songwriting. The guitar became more of a tool in the hunt for “the good song”, and the dream of becoming a guitarist was replaced by the dream of becoming an artist.

Philip explores the modern pop sound in combination with organic elements. With a playful approach to production, and a youthful and honest lyrical universe, he finds himself somewhere in between the naive and thoughtful.

‘Coming Back Around’ by The Kith featuring Josh Vorster has a catchy vocal, supported by a deep bass.

The Kith is an up-and-coming DJ duo consisting of two brothers born and raised in the Netherlands.

The duo is unique as the youngest brother is only 16 years old. Together they are at the start of their music career. Besides Slap House / Brazilian Bass they also make some heavier Bass House tracks.

The release of ‘Tell Me Why’ was their first real success, with a warm atmosphere and the deep bass known from Slap House. The track has been streamed over 30k times in a few months. Other tracks that followed up after this success within Slap House were ‘Closer’ on Kiwistage records and ‘Coming Back Around’ on Tritone records. Recently, in addition to the original mix, a remix was released by AUGUSTE of the track ‘Closer’.

‘Coming Back Around’ featuring Josh Vorster has a catchy vocal, supported by a deep bass.
The high notes during the pre drop provide a broadening feeling, allowing the typical Slap House drop to hit deep. The melodic drop with powerful bass is the characteristic style of the song.
