You’ll be winning if you explore the dynamic sounds of ‘Losing Party’ by Sitko.
‘Losing Party’ pulls listeners in with snappy piano chords and then adds reverby guitars to create a dreamy atmosphere. On top of that, there are some synths to fill out the sound, and they hit with a bit of dissonance which adds a lot of emotion. Additionally, the vocals have just a bit of a melancholy undertone and are filtered to match the production of the instrumentation. Overall, the production and mix put together a cohesive and interesting track. Lyrically, this track explores the inner void that is typical in the human experience. “Cigarettes don’t quite taste / The same in the losing party … It all just stays the same / Here I go back again,” the lyrics express. It feels like being stuck and unable to get unstuck through any means.
Mexico-based indie artist Sitko is currently working on a project called “Sad Boys Club,” and ‘Losing Party’ is the third single thrown into the mix. This project is perfect for anyone who likes a somber indie sound that plays with the heartstrings musically and lyrically. Overall, Sitko’s sound hits this tone. However, there are some higher-energy songs that stand out. There’s a range in his overall discography, so let’s see what more he can do to add to that range moving forward.
