Kidnap Kid releases video for 'Moments' on his new label Birds That Fly
Earlier this month Kidnap Kid launched his new label Birds That Fly with Moments EP. Both tracks from the EP have clocked up around 80,000 plays since release last week - stream Birds That Fly & Moments.
Wonderland "sensitive, timeless production and brilliant vocal work courtesy of 20 year old up-and-comer and BBC Introducing favourite Leo Stannard... a pretty promising sign of things to come for the burgeoning label."
i-D magazine "A beautiful piece of music that is both emotional and anthemic, sees Kidnap Kid continue that slick, timeless production that he's become so synonymous with"
Further support from Indie Shuffle, Stoney Roads, Earmilk & Less Than 3
Kidnap Kid kickstarts his new label with an anthemic and emotive production that is arguably his best to date. ‘Birds That Fly’ is an indelible cut that’s timeless in nature. It's accelerated by an equally moving and slick production, ‘Moments’ feat Leo Stannard, a captivating classic in original form as well as the paired instrumental mix.
'After releasing on a number of great labels over the past few years, I'm excited to have one to call my own. Birds That Fly was born of the need for a home that felt in harmony with my musical aesthetic. I'm looking forward to releasing the music I love over the years to come.' - Kidnap Kid
Kidnap Kid's versatility is what shines here. Treading a winding path, he originally made his home on the Black Butter label, but has since spread his wings to encompass a more underground aesthetic. This journey has led to the conception of Birds That Fly, a home for his own and other likeminded producers and a platform that will no doubt be a compelling force in the coming months. The vocals on ‘Moments’ belong to singer and songwriter Leo Stannard, who at only 20 years old is also part of the Black Butter family, and was recently supported by BBC Introducing.
