Louisville, Kentucky-based DJ, producer, and songwriter, Plastic Punk is celebrating the end of summer with the release of their new video for “Solar System.” Co-written by BLVCK BARBIE, a singer and songwriter from the Bronx, NY, the cosmic dance single is about ignoring the universe about a relationship until it’s too late.
Plastic Punk is an electro-pop producer & songwriter who began his professional musical career playing DJ sets in Louisville, Kentucky; his journey has led him to be an independent artist, and he collaborates with various singers around the globe to bring his musical creations to life.
“Solar System” is a vibey, pop-leaning electronic single that speaks the mind of a person in too deep of a relationship on the verge of destruction. While it hits all the marks of a great EDM club song, the single plays to the listeners’ heart strings; between BLVCK BARBIE’s voice and cinematic, energetic sounds, “Solar System” belongs on anyone’s Crying in the Club playlist.
“Do you know the saying, a web of lies?” writes Plastic Punk. “It depicts the idea that soon, one tiny white lie strings itself together with so many other lies until, eventually, you are caught in its web. Solar System is a little bit like that. At the beginning of any relationship, everything can seem so perfect. It’s hard to find any flaws. You are drawn so far into their solar system, and then you realize that everything revolves around them. It gets harder to breathe, to speak your mind, and suddenly, the truth makes itself so apparent you get hit with it like a landslide. It’s time to leave.”
“Solar System” by Plastic Punk is available on any major streaming platforms such as Spotify and Apple Music. Find this and more excellent music on the Alchemical Records Multigenre Mixture playlist on Spotify and YouTube.
