Where the future Kentö found succor in music, the current Kentö dispenses succor via music. “People write to me every day, from all around the world” the artist reports. “They tell me about how they relate my songs to themselves.

What’s your favourite book? Movie? Album?” Why is it when faced with these kinds of questions, we feel the need to try to think of a cool or obscure reference — something that shows we are well versed in our tastes? What about, instead, breaking it down to the very root of what makes you happy? What makes you want to dance — or gets you lost no matter where you are physically or emotionally? For me that is Robyn’s Body Talk Pt. II.
