NKEKO – Pasión [Single]

In “Pasión,” singer-songwriter Etienne “NKEKO” Koretzky brings his particular sound and influences into a smooth, soulful single that’s bound to pull you in from the first beat. At just 23 years old, this Swiss-Argentine artist cannonballs into the deep waters of love and longing, setting it against the backdrop of 2021’s rollercoaster of a year.

The song kicks off with NKEKO laying bare his heart, revealing the kind of deep connection that goes beyond words: “En sus ojos vi más que un te quiero / Vi a alguien que quería amar de verdad (”In their eyes, I saw more than an ‘I love you’ / I saw someone who truly wanted to love.” ) The line makes you feel the vulnerability and the highs and lows of meeting someone special at your darkest moment. There’s a glimmer of hope that breaks through, highlighting the song’s central themes of love and resilience, despite cursing 2021 for throwing love his way during trying times

NKEKO‘s buttery vocals combined with a dreamy, understated beat cocoon the listener in a warm hug, striking a chord with anyone who’s endured tough times and found solace in love. The tight rhythm section, featuring precisely played side-stick snare and a bass that hums softly yet firmly, adds to the song’s relaxed yet heartfelt vibe. In addition, in the “Pasión” visualizer, we plunge into the song’s emotional world, tagging along as the young beauty from the song’s cover art figuratively wades through a sea of psychedelic visuals and kaleidoscopic imagery.

NKEKO‘s mastery of stirring melodies is on full display in “Pasión,” where his soft vocals and heartfelt performance immerse you completely in the song’s vibe. He captures every nuance, every cadence, and every sentiment with such realness and clarity, inviting you to vibe with his sound.
