Following the positive reviews received for his first single "Space Odyssey", IJK has released on November 4th, 2016 the Lyric Video of the song.

The Lyric Video mixes space snapshots, time-lapses, celestial objects and IJK performing in wild nature...The sound of the "Space Odyssey" Lyric Video is typical of IJK's pop rock style: A catchy piano/synth and guitar driven melody coupled with philosophical and strong vocals. 

The music is catchy, the feeling melancholic, the visuals haunting and the overall experience is a neo-classic piece of interesting indie piano rock. 

Watch IJK's latest lyric video below and enjoy the ride to the stars!

"Oh simple thing, where have you gone?"

Do you remember this melancholic interrogation from one of Keane's most popular hit  "Somewhere Only Know"? I bet you sang this verse a million times in your head especially if you were into alternative rock music around 2004 - 2005. 

Well guess what? IJK has just released an acoustic version of this unforgettable piano rock masterpiece which you can watch below. Addictive melodies, indie rock nostalgia and soaring vocals...Check it all below.

IJK is currently working on an acoustic cover of one of his favorite songs by Piano Rock band Keane, "Somewhere Only We Know". 

The music video is done in an indie style and will feature IJK performing this hit on acoustic guitar.

On June 3rd 2016, IJK got interviewed by 1inMusic, a UK based music publication with a dynamic team of editors and music critics.

During this special encounter, IJK talked about his debut, inspirations and future plans.

On May 17th, 2016, IJK has released his first original music video entitled Space Odyssey.
The music video was shot in the beautiful green nature of the Lebanese mountains with the friendly collaboration of Fayez Rizkallah, a renowned Lebanese drummer.

The Space Odyssey song and music video focus on the central theme of our very existence and make us ask intriguing questions such as:

- Where are we from ?
- Where are we going to?
- Or as the lyrics say: "What lies beneath the maze of the endless constellations? It might be the very Truth..."

Inspired from Stanley Kubrick's famous masterpiece 2001: A Space Odyssey, IJK has blended interesting lyrics, a catchy melody and eerie visuals...The result is this interesting piece of piano rock that is both melancholic and hopeful.

Without further commenting, we invite you to enjoy the full music video:
