Vienna Vienna has released his new single “Idle Hands” today as a follow up to his previous work on “Company Hunting.” The track combines an upbeat 80s pop feel with modern indie rock influences including playful synths and distorted guitars. This song radiates a vibrant energy that balances absurdist humor with an existential bite. The lyrics feature a hook where the artist mentions how his idle hands keep him occupied all the time while comparing himself to a rocket man who failed to launch. This release highlights the artist’s ability to turn personal narratives into bold statements underscored by a chaotic groove.
The inspiration behind the music stems from a desire for real connection outside of digital spaces. Vienna Vienna says “change lies at your footsteps, not your fingertips” and notes that the connection you hope to find is out there and is worth it. He suggests that when you are “done trying to change the heart and mind of a guy with an anonymous profile pic” you should let him know. The artist invites listeners to join a community because they are “building a community over here and we’d genuinely love to have you” in this new space. This track captures the restless motion of modern life through heartbeat drums and infectious hand claps.
