Chinese British rising R&B talent Alex Ko releases stunning video for latest poetic masterpiece "High On You"

Hailing from Manchester, R&B singer-songwriter Alex Ko returns to the ether with his latest poetic masterpiece “High On You”. Floating atop smooth, soul-infused production, Alex’s authentic and direct vocals take centre stage, with nostalgic harmonies and intimate wordplay representing vulnerability within his blossoming artistry. “I get high on you, it’s the vibe you give out, energy like oud, sends me to another place while still connected” he sings, exploring his connection to loved ones with uplifting affirmations whilst effortlessly showcasing his impressively vast range. Shot in North London and directed by up- and-coming film director Liam Rodgers “High On You”’s accompanying video expands on the track’s unapologetically heartfelt narrative which pays tribute to the power of formative relationships. The often-opposing forces that create intimacy, understanding and compassion are explored within the private walls of a home shared by Alex and his partner combined with stylised dance scenes, celebrating the joys of authentic human connection.

Speaking on the track Alex tells us: “’High On You” is a love letter to the people in my life that have always supported my musicality, personal growth and happiness. The song’s a product of me taking time to find a sound that truly resonates, and I love its bluesy, soulful quality. Even though it was a product of patience, the lyrics were written in just an hour while sat in my friend’s South London barber shop. The peaks, valleys and joyful melodies make it an all-encompassing experience to perform.”
