Hidden Fortress’ latest single, “Electric Skeleton,” is a fascinating exploration of life and the mysteries of existence. Inspired by the unique sounds of synth bass and the Yamaha DX7, this psychedelic band has crafted a song that celebrates the absurdity and wonder of our existence.
Since we started having consciousness, we have wondered about the reasons for our existence. Inspired by those whys, Hidden Fortress decided to create a song that contemplates the inexplicable nature of consciousness. How are we moving, thinking, and interacting with the world? “Electric Skeleton” knows that providing a definitive answer to these questions is impossible. Still, instead of trying, they invite listeners to accept the mystery and appreciate the simple fact of being alive.
Hidden Fortress’ distinctive sound is a refreshing and experimental blend of psychedelia, alt-rock, synth-pop, funk, and cyberpunk. Their desire to break boundaries and create something truly unique is always mind-blowing. Combining cyberpunk’s futuristic aesthetics with synth-pop’s infectious beats, Hidden Fortress has created a unique soundscape that breaks all the molds.
For their latest song, “Electric Skeleton,” the band uses addictive pop beats and funky synth sounds to inspire listeners to seize the moment and embrace the potential within each of us. The song’s message encourages us to discover what life can offer; it is an open invitation to create new art, embark on adventures, and explore the world with our electric skeletons.
Through its lyrics, the track explores the concepts of identity and consciousness. By using the metaphor of a “strange bag of bones” to represent our physical bodies, the band starts by reminding us of the surprisingly simple essence of what we are; however, it doesn’t ignore the fact that it is all basically a miracle. The lines “Take a look at yourself” and “Look deep inside” motivate listeners to reflect on their consciousness and discover the electric power that lies within.
The song’s message is particularly relevant today, when we are often bombarded with information and distractions. “Electric Skeleton” reminds us of the importance of being present in the moment and appreciating the simple beauty of life. It also motivates listeners to embrace life with a more optimistic look. Even in the lowest lows, you are still an electric skeleton with its glow.
