In the 2007 EP release, Human Stereo, the Kid crafted songs through a variety of pop, new wave, dance, and classical influences that mesh new and classic synths, slide guitar, violin and electronic beats. Human Stereo is currently available worldwide through online distribution.

While honing songs and playing at Los Angeles events, Kid Moxie began working with producer Daniel Hoal (also producer to Nancy Sinatra). In the beginning of 2009, the Kid completed it’s first full-length album for Undo Records/EMI (Greece), Selector, coming out in June, 2009.

Capturing the attention of many different musicians, Kid Moxie has worked with artists around the world on various remixes of songs from Human Stereo. Serafim Tsotsonis’ remix of “Champagne” appears on the Hilton Hotels compilation Press R for Galaxy Bar, released by KLIK Records, while his remix for “Tsunami” is on heavy rotation on European radio stations. The English-based Motorbikes in Tokyo created a remix of “Ma Romance D’Hiver,” which will soon be appearing on the compilation Electronically Yours (Undo/EMI). The Los Angeles-based musicians Us Vs. Them created remixes of “Disco Minotaur” which are also available for sale online.

Kid Moxie’s song “Ma Romance D’ Hiver” was featured on The L Word in its season 4 premiere. Their video for “Hollywood Smile,” directed by Locke Webster, is currently in rotation on MTV/Logo TV and won a slot on Logo’s Top 10 Videos for March ‘09. In Greece, the “Hollywood Smile” video and “Ma Romance D’Hiver,” directed by Danielle Eskinazi, are airing on both MAD TV and MTV Greece. Songs from Human Stereo and the upcoming Selector are being played on radio stations globally, from Greece (Best FM 92.6 in Athens, Greece) to the UK (Robo Cast Radio, BBC) to the US (Hunnypot Radio, WomensMusic, KXLU, Los Angeles). The Kid was also featured in Curve Magazine’s music issue (July 2008), and also in Diva Magazine (UK - August ‘08), Salome Magazine, Empowerment4Women, Lifo, Vima, Vogue and Status Magazines in Greece.”

The Sea
Kid Moxie Lyrics

Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴

My own place to be
is there where i´m free
my own way to be
dreamful is the sea

My own place to be
is there where i´m free
my own way to be

dreamful is the sea

There again just feel
only there i can breathe
there again just feel
only there i can just breathe

There again just feel
only there i can breathe

there again just feel
only there i can just breathe

Overall Meaning

In the song "The Sea" by Kid Moxie, the lyrics talk about finding a space for oneself where they can feel free to be who they are, and for the artist, that place is the sea. The sea represents a dream-like state, a place where one can just exist without feeling pressured or restricted. The repetition of the phrases "my own place to be" and "my own way to be" highlights the importance of having personal autonomy and being able to choose one's own path in life.

The next stanza emphasizes the importance of the sea as a space for the artist to find peace and rejuvenate. The line "only there I can breathe" is powerful as it suggests that the artist is suffocating or feeling trapped in other spaces. The sea provides a sense of relief and a release from any negative emotions or constraints that may be weighing down the artist.

Overall, "The Sea" is a powerful commentary on the importance of finding a personal space where one feels comfortable and free to just exist. For Kid Moxie, that space is the sea, and through the lyrics, the artist urges listeners to find their own space where they can be themselves and breathe freely.
