Rising artist Mike Äpt is someone who should be on your radar, but most likely isn’t. That’s because his debut single, “Not Us”, released today – February 20, 2023. Although “Not Us” is his first original song, Mike Äpt amassed a social media following through posting musical content on TikTok on Instagram – so we can assume his self-made track is going to be good, right?
Absolutely. Fusing Indie Rock and R&B elements, “Not Us” is a soulful mix of melody, ambience, and emotion. Though simple, our introduction to the chorus hits home – as all instruments kick into full gear, accompanied by the words “Sometimes love sucks”. A moment created with the listener in mind, the first drop sets the mood for the rest of the song. While Mike gets personal about his feelings, we’re able to relate to it on this musical journey. We’re looking forward to what Mike has in store for us next.
