KiKi Holli & The Remedy has just shared her latest irresistible new EP Something About You. Fusing dream pop, synth, darkwave, rock, adult contemporary and more, the EP offers something for every listener. Something About You follows her single release "Running Out Of Time" which was also released with remixes.
From the opening moments of the title track, Something About You pulls listeners into a world defined by longing, desire, and emotional clarity. Holli’s vocal performance is striking in its restraint and power, capturing the subtle tension between vulnerability and control. The production, helmed by Grammy-nominated Ethan Allen, wraps her voice in layers of dreamy textures and dark wave undertones, creating an atmosphere that feels immersive without ever overwhelming the core emotion.
“The Garden” shifts the mood into something warmer and more luminous, offering a sense of escape. Featuring acoustic guitars, bright keys and falsetto vocals, the reflective song balances beauty with a quiet sense of possibility. Holli sings "Hold me closer / This will never fade / Inside" shows this hopeful narrative.
Then there is “Don’t Change", a gorgeous reimagining of the INXS classic. Stripped back guitar picking underlays Holli's enticing and introspective vocals. Moody string arrangements and tender sonics leans into intimacy, stripping the song down to reveal new emotional nuances. Holli transforms it into something more personal, letting authenticity lead the way.
“So Far Away” is perhaps the emotional centerpiece of the EP. It lingers in the ache of absence, capturing the kind of distance that doesn’t fade with time. Holli’s delivery here is particularly compelling, carrying a quiet weight that resonates long after the track ends. Upbeat guitars and groove-induced basslines make for a nostalgic listen. She sings, "Don't go so far away," asking for closeness.
Closing with “Brand New Day,” the EP offers a sense of release. The song is fierce, seductive and rock-fueled. Holli's vocal delivery is at her most confident as she sings words of encouragement, "I keep thinking of a brand new day / I got my feet on the ground." The track is the perfect end to an EP filled with emotion and heart.
What makes Something About You stand out is its cohesion. Each track feels like a chapter in a larger narrative, guided by Holli’s theatrical background and instinct for storytelling. There’s a deliberate pacing to the EP, with each song unfolding like a scene, rich in detail and emotional intention.
With Something About You, KiKi Holli & The Remedy makes a clear artistic statement. This is an EP built for repeat listens, revealing new layers with each spin and confirming Holli as an artist whose range and vision continue to expand.
