Featuring Mandhla and celest*, cXnnections, AKA KELZZ’s most recent single, has an addictive sound that touches all the proper R&B notes. Released on October 23, this song thrashes with electrifying intensity, fusing a sensuous groove with soft, soulful sounds that make it tough to still. Designed in Berlin, a city renowned for its edgy, boundary-pushing music culture, cXnnections deftly combines Mandhla’s own flair with AKA KELZZ’s powerful sound to create an anthem that feels both personal and large.
Fundamentally, cXnnections is an homage to the spark of a new connection—the type that resists simple classifications. AKA KELZZ and Mandhla tell a tale of light-hearted uncertainty where shared laughter, memories of early years, and those lingering looks set the backdrop for something undefined but unquestionably unique. Capturing that sweet tension we have all experienced at some point, the songs investigate the sensation of dancing on the brink of friendship and love.
cXnnections is from AKA KELZZ’s new album, ODYSSEY which is out on the 25th of November! Head over to https://akakelzz.bandcamp.com/ for more updates.
