Violinist and composer Josh Kua recently released All A Game, a new single that launched on music streaming platforms on 3 Mar. Converging violin and cyberpunk, All A Game is a fusion of hard-hitting beats, synth bass lines, and electronic violin melodies.

Josh works alongside music producer Daniel Veerapen as co-producer, blending cyberpunk-inspired tracks with dark synth and synth wave elements. Unlike previously released singles, the violin aficionado incorporates minimal lyrics and his own vocals for the first time in this composition. In many ways, it is a futuristic composition that illustrates Josh’s personal experiences of feeling vulnerable and frustrated at times.

“This song is about breaking free of your fears and inhibitions. I’m often paralysed by choice, fear of failure and perfectionism. ‘ALL A GAME’ serves as a genuine reminder to myself that this career I have, and indeed several aspects of life, really are all games, as many of the things we worry about don’t really matter in the grand scheme of things,” said Josh.

“It’s better to take chances and learn to be okay with making mistakes, rather than overthinking everything and doing nothing… I hope this song will continue to push boundaries around how traditional instruments and instrumentalists can be perceived and experienced.”
