About this Song
The live recording captured at The Wiltern, Oceans & Engines, emerges from the body of work that would become NIKI’s third studio album, a pop project crafted by the Philippines-born artist that distills the same intimate, unflinching songwriting that defines every part of her discography. What would eventually be named Buzz started with an urgent quake from the innermost core of her being, a foundational spark that animates every iteration of the album’s work, including this live performance that carries the raw, unpolished warmth of a project born from genuine, unfiltered personal truth. Her songwriting remains as intimate as ever, even when scaled to fit the grand space of a historic theater like The Wiltern, where the energy of a live crowd wraps around the core of her work rather than overshadowing the close, personal perspective that makes her writing resonate so deeply.
