Alto Key was the most duetted artist on TikTok in the UK (read more here).
"the day we met" is an emotionally-penned offering. Heartwarming piano lines provide the perfect canvas for vocals to be laid on top. The vocals come wrapped up in irresistible melodies that are sure to get stuck in your head. Underneath, drums create a swaying melody that only adds to the warm feeling of the track.
Alto Key further reveals: “I typically make lots of music sounds on social media for people to use in their own short-form videos. One such sound that was shared a lot had lyrics around "the day we met" which people were using to show how they met their partners and pets. It also led to me getting a flood of requests for a full wedding dance song. As a result, I poured all the romantic energy I could squeeze into making a first dance song, and kept the sound lo-fi just like the original viral sound's humble origins.”
His published songs receive just as much passion and energy, and have been shared by the likes of BBC Introducing, Soho Radio, Idobi Radio, EARMILK, Music News and many more blogs and radio stations. With his social media presence sky high and new music coming at us fast, this appears to be only the beginning for Alto Key.
