MUKI

About the Artist

Melbourne/Naarm artist MUKI (pronounced mʊk-ie) unveils his debut EP, 'Trampoline', a deeply personal collection exploring the emotional highs, lows and in-between moments of identity, anxiety, heartbreak and growth. Building on his introspective blend of indie acoustic pop-rock, the EP is honest and vulnerable, showcasing MUKI's thoughtful songwriting and understated arrangements. Since debuting earlier this year with singles 'Gasoline', 'Reflections' and 'Morning Music', MUKI has steadily shaped a sound defined by soft guitars, thoughtful lyricism and a powerful and passionate vocal delivery. Produced alongside Josh Barber, 'Trampoline' brings together the themes introduced across MUKI’s debut singles, reflecting on the ups and downs of life. Now joined by new track 'My Sweet Anxiety', a deeply personal reflection on the messiness and confusion that often comes with anxiety, the EP’s emotional themes are brought into fuller focus. Speaking on the EP, MUKI shares: “It’s about the strange joy tied to childhood, and the way a memory can hold both innocence and pain. The title came from a notion I couldn’t shake: ‘have you ever seen anyone sad on a trampoline?” Opening 'Trampoline', 'My Sweet Anxiety' pairs fingerpicked guitar, light percussion and a soft, breathy vocal delivery with a melancholic sense of lightness, capturing the push and pull that comes with living alongside anxiety. Gentle yet emotionally restless, the track embraces the messiness and confusion of mental health without losing sight of hope.
