Bingkai Karya – After more than a year away, rising genre-blending artist rouri404 makes a powerful return with his new single, “miss it”, out now via Red Bull Records. Marking a bold new chapter in his artistic journey, the track blends upbeat EDM energy with raw, emotional lyricism, showcasing his growth both sonically and personally.
Layered with glitchy synths, trap-inspired beats, dubstep drops, and touches of pop-punk, “miss it” stands as a refreshing evolution from rouri404’s darker hyperpop roots. True to his signature style, the production is intense yet heartfelt, built around unfiltered vocals and introspective storytelling.
Speaking on the single, rouri404 reflects, “I’ve always made music from a place of pain, it felt safer to lean into sadness than risk showing any other side of myself. I was afraid that if people saw the real me, they’d think I was weird or cringey. ‘miss it’ is different. It’s me throwing those fears out the window.”
This past year has been transformative for the Orlando-born artist, who relocated to Los Angeles. “After moving across the country, I had a lot of time to reflect, not just on music but on who I am and who I want to be. I grew up surrounded by negativity, and for years, that shaped the way I expressed myself. I’d become content with it, but I realized that’s not who I want to be. I want to create from a place that reflects better moments in life. I’ve been so focused on the past that I let good memories slip away. I don’t want to miss anything anymore.”
Last night, rouri404 brought “miss it” to the stage for the first time in Los Angeles, delivering an electrifying live debut to an audience buzzing with energy, further cementing his place as one of the most exciting emerging voices in alternative and electronic music.
