On Michael Soul’s new release, “Hiding,” you take a walk through the quieter, mostly unmentioned realms of human emotion. The influences of electronic, soul, and urban pop music are evident in the song, with the introspective energy of artists like James Blake, Yebba, and FKA twigs.
“Hiding” was written in 2023, when Michael was extremely lonely, and was born in the summer of 2025. It conveys the raw tension of solitude with cinematic precision. The music exudes soft electronic textures that wrap around Michael Soul’s voice like a melancholy fog. This is the same as going through everything you fear and feel pain about, that you hide from.
The song was mixed and mastered by Grammy-nominated engineer Andrea Mastroiacovo. The sound quality foregrounds every flickering note, emphasizing the song’s emotional honesty. The mood draws you in and, at the end, challenges you to reflect on your own quiet moments of weakness. Michael Soul is one to watch as the electronic and urban pop scene evolves, and his modern soul statement brings together sophistication and raw emotion.
Wth his song, “Hiding,” Michael Soul not only offers you a track but an empty space to cry. It’s a master class in transforming intensely private experience into universal sound, and it marks a milestone, arguably, a breakthrough in his artistic life.
