Kid Froopy nails Internet age melancholy with "bb (four missed texts)"

Kid Froopy’s Facebook bio reads "handmade computer music pitched up for when you text your crush" – and his first label release on Moving Castle is exactly that. 

[soundcloud url="https://api.soundcloud.com/playlists/252685904" params="auto_play=false&hide_related=false&show_comments=true&show_user=true&show_reposts=false&visual=true" width="100%" height="450" iframe="true" /]

The 26-year-old producer caught the attention of the DJ collective when he sent them his remix of Robokid's "Helix" a year ago.

"bb (four missed texts)" is an ode to Internet age miscommunication and sentiments lost in translation through iMessage and SnapChat. With yearning lyrics ("it's strange…") drenched over a sunny throwback 80's beat, "bb" embodies another line borrowed from the producer's social media properties – "Songs for :) and :'("
