MUMBAI: Israeli pop superstar Nathan Goshen returns to disco:wax, after the viral KVR Remix of his track Thinking About It (Let It Go), which to date has over 93 million streams, proved the perfect catalyst for Goshen’s next awaited move - Home.
KVR’s sublime remix of Nathan’s Thinking About It (Let It Go’ was the first track uploaded to the young 15-year-old’s SoundCloud page. Showing a level of studio talent way beyond his years and catching the attention of Nathan’s now management and in turn millions of fans. Having now eclipsed over 93 million worldwide streams, the single Thinking About It (Let It Go) has received platinum status in Holland, Gold in three Nordic states and #1 airplay across Russia. Leaving a mark and opening Nathan’s music to a new audience beyond his native home.
Now, with the new future hit Home, Nathan Goshen veers into a spacious, anthemic territory. Producing a future bass foundation that leads his recognisably characteristic vocal to melt like butter, an instantly relatable top line of “I Wish I could Be Home Right Now” gives the single a warmth of emotion that also teases us with its elegant chops and a slick fizzling bass.
Bringing additional substance to the sound of Home, Nathan wanted to accompany the single’s release with a handful of short documentaries that depict the lives of those where the word home has a hard-wearing meaning. Across five short videos, viewers get an insight into the lives of people living in New York, Congo, Bangkok, Aabenraa and Israel with each having a different longingness for home – a narrative painted by Nathan’s songwriting in the single.
As one of his country’s greatest success stories in recent times, Nathan’s East-meets-West union of electronic-leaning pop is surely soon to be finding popularity with fans around the world. Already awarded ‘Man Of The Year’ and ‘Singer Of The Year’ by one of his nation’s highest-rating radio stations – Galgalatz. Also awarded ‘Composer Of The Year’ from the Society of Authors, Composers and Music Publishers (ACUM), Goshen further increased his industry credentials by stepping out of the recording booth to feature as a guest judge on the Israeli edition for one of the world’s most recognisable talent shows; The X Factor. His most recent endeavour on the screen sees him teaming up with one Israel's all-time greatest filmmakers Avi Nesher for a leading role in the award-winning director's upcoming feature film.
With the early momentum around his career already very strong and a legion of home-grown devotees supporting his music, Nathan Goshen looks set to be a name music fans can expect to hear more of in the coming months.
