Hiko, who grew up in London, was inspired by electronic heavyweights Daft Punk & Calvin Harriswhilefinding his own sound within the music industry, as well as learning what spoke to him as an artist. In 2017, he had his big breakthrough when producing for Khalid’s debut album, American Teen– which would later see him earn a Grammy Award nomination for his work on the record.
He has also worked alongside alternative R&B singers Abra and Father on their collaborative track ‘Late Nights’, and recently produced for the likes of TaylaParx, Peach Tree Rascals&LanceyFoux. He has also been releasing a steady stream of music as part of Earth2Boy, his band with Bipolar Sunshine, as well as a solo artist, including recent single ‘self-test’.
Now the UK native is set to release the music video for the aforementioned track. Matching the high-intensity aesthetic of ‘self-test’, thevideo sees Hiko and his crew speeding round the streetsLondon in supercars, with the quick, rapid cuts and cryptic videography mirroring the equally jagged, winding and unpredictable synths that seamlessly blend with the pitched vocals of Hiko.
“self-test is really just about testing yourself, you always gotta keep yourself on your toes and analyze and test yourself”, Hiko explains. “Why you doing this? Why am I behaving this way? Once you do that, you’ll learn a lot you didn’t before”.
With the promise of even more music in 2021, HikoMomoji remains one to firmly keep an eye on.
