KWONIX is a collaborative project between Kwo (Los Angeles) and Unïx (Richmond, VA native). The duo initially connected virtually in 2023 through a mutual client whom they were writing and producing for. After quickly gaining admiration and appreciation for each other's artistry, Kwo and Unïx began working on a collection of their own songs remotely; Kwo sending instrumentals to Unïx who seamlessly found the space and words to take each song higher. 

 

Kwo loves jazz chords and cinematically lush arrangements. His music is always full of rich textures and clever licks that still leave room for songwriters to take his music further. Artists' harmonic vocabulary like Herbie Hancock, Stevie Wonder, Hiatus Kaiyote, & Nick Hakim can be heard in his arrangements, while his production aesthetic reflects artists like Terrace Martin and Kiefer. Even while bearing his influences clearly, everything he creates still sounds like Kwo. 

 

Then we have Unïx, a singer with a warm, magnetic personality who is truly one-of-one. People often compare his voice to Anderson. Paak, Durand Bernarr, and Moses Sumney, but nobody sounds quite like Unïx himself. Blessed with a soulful voice with a spiritual undercurrent, the Richmond native captivates listeners with their sound and lyrics that always have a clear message. Unïx is unafraid to change their sound, thriving in transformation and bending genres.

 

These two rising artists come together to bring the world KWONIX. KWONIX is dedicated to ensuring that their vision inspires more great art, no matter the medium. These songs are personal, yet they break time, sound, and relational barriers. Listeners will submit themselves to the undeniable KWONIX experience whether they dance, sing, or simply concentrate on the sonics and message of the music.
