“Into The Dark” is the newest single from Amsterdam’s Kita Menari.
Kita Menari is the project of songwriter and producer Micha de Jonge. In 2017, Micha had an unfortunate near death experience while scuba diving in Malaysia. His oxygen tank jammed underwater, and he barely made it to the surface in time to survive. His outlook on life completely changed, and when he woke up, he noticed the words “Kita Menari” – “we dance” in Malay, scribbled on a piece of paper found in his pocket.
From that moment on, Kita Menari was his new state of living.
“Into the Dark” is a song about coping with the meaningless, daily standard routines. “I often experience those as the complete absurdity of life,” Menari explains. “But I’ve found that no matter how hard I try to be different, still I’m chained to life’s patterns and cycles. That’s ultimately what the song’s about, trying to change a cycle and realizing how caught up you are in it.”
“Into the Dark” is the first track from Kita Menari’s forthcoming EP Dreaming All the Time, dropping November 22nd. Give it a listen below!
