KIARAA Electrifying Rebirth with ‘Feel With Me’

Masterful storyteller and captivating performer KIARAA, formerly known as Raquel Kiaraa, released an electrifying remix of her fervent pop gem, ‘Feel With Me’, on November 22, 2024. The revamped track, reimagined by the visionary producer Robert Parker, will drop via Sono Rak Corp, promising to elevate the already vibrant original to new heights.

With over 2 million streams across multiple platforms, KIARAA’s artistic brilliance has garnered critical acclaim from major outlets such as Billboard, Rolling Stone, CLASH Magazine, NOTION, and EARMILK, among others. Known for her unwavering consistency and determination, her journey is nothing short of cinematic. A self-taught vocalist and pianist, KIARAA entered the music scene at 32, and within just a year, she was performing sold-out shows. Blending pop-rock and soul with the fiery energy of Gwen Stefani and the raw, emotional storytelling of Olivia Rodrigo, KIARAA is poised for long-lasting success.

Prodigal producer Robert Parker is a Swedish electronic music icon, who originally trained as a classical pianist, and evolved from creating tracker music in the ’90s to producing retro-inspired tracks in the 2000s. His passion for analog synthesizers was ignited in 2009 with the purchase of a Korg Polysix, shaping the trademark sound he’s renowned for today. Parker gained recognition for his critically acclaimed albums, Crystal City (2016) and End of the Night (2018), as well as the soundtrack for the horror film Videoman (2018). 

‘Feel With Me’ is a gripping pop anthem by KIARAA, crafted around pulsating guitar riffs and a soaring chorus which showcases her soulful vocals. Robert Parker’s remix transforms the track into an 80s fever dream, with an infusion of cinematic 80s synths, sweeping atmospherics along with mesmerizing reverb on KIARAA’s vocals, elevating the original track into a soundtrack-ready fantasy. This track is sure to ensnare fans of Sophie Ellis-Bextor, Annie Lennox, The Weeknd, and Nina.

Robert Parker shared: “KIARAA’s voice and melody crafting is very inspiring. It’s very rare to me, to immediately find it naturally in place in any musical composition. Therefore it was very joyful work to put it together with my own musical style. I usually cherry pick favorite elements from the 80s and some from the 90s, and then aim to place it in a modern context. It was lots of fun with this track!”
