With the release of Unserious on New Year’s Day, timed perfectly with the cosmic alignment of Sirius, NEO 10Y offers listeners more than just a catchy club anthem—he brings an energetic invitation to step away from the weight of the world and embrace a sense of freedom, fun, and spiritual renewal. From the very first beat, the track pulses with an upbeat, danceable rhythm that commands attention, making it the perfect tune to kick off the year with a bang.
The production is saturated with distorted, almost gritty sounds, creating a vibe that feels raw and unapologetically bold. The song’s bass-heavy grooves and infectious tempo give it a club-like energy that makes you want to move—whether you’re dancing in a crowded space or simply vibing alone in your room. It’s the kind of song that not only gets you on your feet but also allows for a personal, introspective escape. There’s something liberating about how the track blends an almost chaotic energy with its liberating theme of peace and freedom.
Lyrically, Unserious leans into both humor and depth, as NEO 10Y challenges the notion of taking life too seriously. Lines like “It’s so unserious” and “My mind’s been so ambiguous” set the tone for a song that embraces contradictions and complexity, encouraging listeners to find joy in the unpredictability of existence. The chorus, with its repetition of “Make me feel free whilst I am here at peace,” encapsulates the essence of the track—seeking inner peace while rejecting the pressures and expectations of the outside world.
There’s also a nod to spiritual and cosmic themes throughout the lyrics, with references to “adrenochrome,” “psychedelics,” and “biohacked reality.” These elements add an intriguing layer of mysticism to the song, giving it a sense of escapism and self-exploration, perfectly aligned with the new year’s promise of renewal and possibility. It’s a playful yet profound exploration of individuality, consciousness, and freedom.
