Kevin Sihwan Pays Homage to Legendary Festival with “Tomorrowland”
Hyeseong Park, also known as Kevin Sihwan, is a highly accomplished DJ, EDM producer, and multi-instrumentalist based in New York City. Originally from Seoul, South Korea, Kevin has been honing his musical skills since the age of seven, with a particular focus on mastering the piano. This decade-long commitment to playing the piano served as the foundation for his eventual transition into music production. Now Kevin Sihwan is back in spectacular fashion with his second single release of the year. Inspired by the iconic Tomorrowland festival in Belgium, the South Korean savant is proud to present “Tomorrowland.”
“I’ve always wanted to make a fantastic song with a fairytale feel, and I’ve also been inspired a lot by the Tomorrowland Festival, so that’s why I made this fantastic track that lures the future house with a dance feel. In college, I was inspired by the great movie music masters such as Hans Zimmer and Steve Javlonsky, and it’s true that I made several orchestral songs based on their songs too. I’ve always thought about what my own world or life should be, and I wanted to feel that it should be like a fairytale.” – Kevin Sihwan
In recent years, Kevin has made a name for himself in the K-pop and Japanese City Pop scene in Seoul, and has since gained recognition in the electronic dance music scene as both an Electro House and Future House producer. His reputation for producing high-quality tracks has caught the attention of music enthusiasts around the world, and he has performed alongside some of the most well-known names in the industry.
“The beginning of the song is mysterious and gives a fantastic feeling, but I wanted to add dance elements from the build-up with energy leads to show that it’s a dance song eventually. It’s an old song, but Adrenaline, the instrumental track of Zedd, also influenced it.” – Kevin Sihwan
Sihwan is a dreamer, a creator determined to establish himself as one of the world’s preeminent international producer talents. Drawing inspiration from the energetic anthem-style, big room tracks that dominated the airwaves in the early 2010s, Kevin Sihwan is putting a modern spin on a classic sound. Re-energizing and breathing life into a particular genre of electronic music that brought joy and happiness to millions of electronic music fans around the globe. Citing Steve Aoki as one of his major artistic influences, Sihwan’s goal is to be stress-free, to create without limitation or boundaries which can be heard in his recent production. “Tomorrowland” is out now on all mayor streaming platforms.
