Hong Kong native XTIE returns with ‘Cloud 9’, a fresh track for the new year with her signature, ethereal vocals. Blending her euphoric pop with cinematic soundscapes and heart-wrenching melodies, XTIE dives deep into her psyche, questioning her different paths in life. With a subtle nod to energetic Europop and a distinctly electronic drop, XTIE’s exciting pop sound is taking her global.
Talking about the new track, XTIE shares: “This track is a collaboration with Kepatime. I wrote ‘Cloud 9’ based on a dream. The song talks about how hard it is to throw ourselves all in for something we want to pursue, and into what we are passionate about, and we all don't know how long will it take for the time to come in this journey, it is a very lonely journey. We put ourselves up in the clouds when we do our own passion project, but you don't know if you'd fall one day.” She further shares: “The track is full of energy, and a mood booster. I hope anyone who listens to this song can feel the warmth in the lyrics, and give our dream a chance, as well as remember who we are.”
