Mako announced the release of a brand-new, indie track, “Ocelot” which is currently available to stream/download via Ultra Music here. “Ocelot” marks Mako’s final release prior to his forthcoming sophomore album Fable which is due out in early December.
“Ocelot” opens with a captivating acoustic guitar riff over handclaps and percussion where the artist’s emotive vocal effortlessly drifts. It then builds with a driving four-on-the-floor rhythm into an electro-pop anthem which is sure to envelop its listeners worldwide. Following a string of six releases, Mako has proven that his evolution as a music producer is not restrained by one musical genre.
“I started the idea for Fable on a pretty unusual and meaningful trip to Norway, literally stowed away on an empty farm for a little while. Everything was intense and thoughtful at the time. My close friends made a surprise trip to meet me in Stockholm after I was done – not much to say here except for a legendary few days of partying. This song was written about that break in the trip, with us running around town doing god knows what. I love it for Fable because I personally feel like it’s such an infectious side-note in an otherwise pretty somber and deliberate collection of songs, which is just what that week in Sweden meant to me.”
