Setting the tone with immersive keys expanding with celestial string details and light percussion, Patryk Kania opens his latest single, Love Language with the vulnerable lyrics, “I cut my hair short, fold the pictures, I wear my face long just for fun, they say it’s easy to play the victim, but all they do is hit and run…”
Love Language expands into an intimate and moving composition that tells the story of what it is like growing up in a society that might not understand you.
Speaking on his vision, Patryk Kania says, “Growing up in a secluded place has its perks. It’s quiet, slow-paced and gives you a sense of community. But what happens when you start to develop feelings that this same loving community views as abnormal and deviant?”
The rising artist who was born and raised in Poland continues, “The longing for your kind of love becomes suppressed and you yourself become at odds with who you are inside.”
Love Language features soft and enigmatic vocals from the rising artist who is now based in Belfast. It is written by Patryk Kania himself and produced with Florida based composer, Kevin Buster.
Patryk elaborates, “Love Language is the second single and an important chapter from my upcoming EP which invites you to the world of rural legends filled with laughter, sadness, hope and terror.”
We love the intricacy of the song, the guitar details, emotive strings, atmospheric vocals and charming and vulnerable delivery as Patryk sings, “No one has seen my darkest hours, I hide my pride so deep within…”
Patryk spent most of his life listening to music which served him as an escape from the forests and the lakes that he once thought were going to be his only home. At nineteen years old, he moved to the UK where he decided to settle down. A few years later, he started learning music production which allowed him to turn melodies and lyrics he would make up in his head into demos he would publish on SoundCloud. In early 2021, he met Kevin Buster who produced his debut EP.
