In an electronic music landscape often dominated by brooding basslines and hyper-polished production, sibling duo Hithegamy emerges with something refreshingly playful: their latest single “Kids Are Free”—a French Touch-inspired track that crackles with the carefree energy of childhood. Released as their twelfth single since 2022, the song is more than just a dancefloor filler; it’s a sonic time machine, designed to transport listeners back to the unbridled joy of youth.
Born from the creative synergy of two brothers with a decade-long age gap, Hithegamy’s music thrives on contrasts. Their sound—a blend of filtered grooves, cheeky cartoonish breaks, and just the right amount of compression—walks the line between nostalgic and novel. “We wanted something that sounds good without taking itself too seriously,” they explain. Mission accomplished. The track’s whimsical shifts and sugar-rush energy evoke the surreal playfulness of a Squid Game soundtrack, but with an undercurrent of warmth. It’s music that “makes you move and puts a smile on your face,” they promise—and it delivers.
The duo’s journey hasn’t been without hurdles. As independent artists, they’ve navigated pauses and learning curves, but their bond as brothers and collaborators has kept their vision alive. “We’ve always found a deep connection when it comes to music,” they share. That connection fuels their hands-on approach: every element of “Kids Are Free”, from composition to mastering, was crafted by the brothers themselves. The result? A track that feels deeply personal yet universally infectious.
For Hithegamy, this release is a tribute to resilience—both theirs and their listeners’. “If you’re reading this, really, really thank you,” they offer with earnest gratitude. “If you’re not having a good moment, please don’t give up.” It’s this raw sincerity that defines their artistry, blending technical skill with emotional resonance.
What’s next? More surprises. The brothers refuse to be boxed into a single genre, teasing “new songs where everything happens in the moment.” If “Kids Are Free” is any indication, we can expect more tracks that defy expectations—and maybe even remind us to dance like no one’s watching.

“Light but not shallow, colorful with a slightly strange aftertaste”—that’s Hithegamy in their own words. And we’re here for it.
