Varun Das’s new single “Childlike” is a refreshing burst of imagination that feels both nostalgic and forward-thinking. The song blends progressive rock, jazz, and electronic colors into something bright and sincere. From the first groove, you can sense that Varun isn’t performing to impress; he’s sharing a part of himself that many of us forget—the playful side that sees the world with open eyes.
The rhythm work in “Childlike” is brilliant without being overbearing. Varun’s drumming guides the track with precision and heart, while Nick Marziani’s saxophone lines swirl around Michael Hilgendorf’s shimmering guitar. Almog Sharvit’s bass adds depth that keeps the song grounded while still letting it breathe. Together, they create a sound that moves freely, full of curiosity and joy. What stands out most is the honesty in its energy. It doesn’t feel forced or mechanical; it feels alive. As someone who loves when music captures genuine emotion, I found “Childlike” deeply moving. It reminds me of those rare moments when you rediscover your sense of wonder after years of taking life too seriously.
On a personal note, I appreciate how this song celebrates freedom in creativity. It’s fearless, colorful, and deeply human. Varun manages to combine complexity with simplicity in a way that feels effortless—a reflection of someone who truly understands both discipline and play. “Childlike” isn’t just a single; it’s an invitation to step back into that open-hearted space we often leave behind. Be sure to follow Varun Das and add this track to your playlist. His music invites you to dream, explore, and feel again—and this release is the perfect place to start.
