Ukiyo, aka Timothy Arnott, has gained over 64m global streams to his name, sync deals with American Eagle, Ripcurl, HBO and Netflix and found the likes of Will Smith, Pharrell Williams, Martin Garrix and PewDiePie using his music to soundtrack their content.
His new single âSlow Motionâ, features Ukiyoâs trademark warm, electronic soundscapes enveloping a delicate vocal from Will Hyde. The track swells with lush production that ensures itâs ready for both quiet commutes and heaving dancefloors.
Ukiyo pulled inspiration for the song from âthat kind of dark place where you feel like youâre falling apart quicker than you can put yourself back together, and the thought of reaching out for help is a burden on a world that seems like itâs moving on fine without you.â Having music help him through the toughest of times, heâs hoping it can âhelp people get out of that place like music has helped me, and remind the people that need to hear it, that theyâre not alone.â
