ONUR: "Wired"
More determined than ever, ONUR is back with his new single “Wired”, available on all streaming platforms on March 24, 2020.
First erupting on the British music scene in 2018, the 23-year-old singer, songwriter and producer set the tone with his genre-bending sound and never looked back. Hungry for success, ONUR patiently worked and fought to get closer to his dream one song at a time, slowly but surely grabbing the attention of the media (Konbini, 1883 Magazine, Fred Perry’s Subculture, EARMILK, EUPHORIA…), the radios (BBC Radio London, KCRW, Reprezent) and industry professionals, from Martin Garrix to labels like Ninja Tune, RCA, Atlantic and the likes. These few exciting steps in the right direction unfortunately came with a flip side, which ultimately inspired Wired. Written and produced by ONUR himself, the track is a strong pledge of self-belief, expanding on his musical horizons and encouraging his audience to celebrate their growth and to never shrink themselves just to make others feel comfortable. “I made this song at a time when a lot of my ‘friends' started to resent me for the little success I started to make in music after working so hard to even get there. It’s a difficult situation to be in but I basically said fuck ‘em and wrote an unapologetic song playing up to my ego, about the joy of seeing people hate me for no reason, hence, I’m WIRED”, explains ONUR who now vows to “pour his heart out whichever way it feels right” in 2020.
Coming at the back of two sold out headline shows in London and over 600K streams gathered in 2019 on Spotify, Wired is his first release this year. To be accompanied by a music video shot by Oliver Marshall on March 31st, the song is announcing ONUR’s sophomore EP, scheduled for fall.
