KEBU @ Arci Bellezza 01/06/2024 [ITA]

Finnish electronic music artist electrified Arci Bellezza in Milan on 1 June 2024. Kebu creates melodic electronic music heavily influenced by the iconic sounds of the 70s and 80s. Known for his deft manipulation of analog synthesis and engaging live performances, Kebu boasts a YouTube channel with over 100 million views and a global fan base. With an impressive resume of over 100 concerts in 13 European countries, Kebu's shows exude warmth, joy and a wide range of analog synthesizers reminiscent of the golden age of synthesized music. His accolades include the prestigious Best International Artist Award at the German Schallwelle Music Awards in 2018 and 2022. Throughout Kebu's set, iconic songs from the 80s and 90s by Jean Micheal Jarre, Giorgio Moroder, Vangelis and others were presented, interspersed with lesser-known gems, the audience was delighted not only with covers of well-known musical pieces (Top Gun, Blade Runner, The Chase) and with a very well performed gem of “Oxygene IV”, but also from songs taken from his three published albums. A contagious energy emanated from the stage which thrilled the audience quite a bit. After all, as any seasoned concert-goer knows, participation is not only encouraging but essential to truly immerse himself in the musical experience he witnesses. An unparalleled set of electronic music and I wish Kebu all the success he deserves around Europe bringing his engaging music.
