Lyrical Honesty in an Age of Filters

In an era where social media feeds are curated for perfection, Neko offers something radically different: unvarnished honesty. His lyrics act as an open diary, confronting themes of isolation, imperfection, and the fragile beauty of human connection.

This vulnerability creates a rare kind of intimacy between artist and listener. It’s not about painting an idealized picture of life, but about acknowledging the messy, often painful truths that bind us together.

Connect with neko

Behind the name Neko is Robin de Geus, an artist with a rich and varied musical past. Known for his work under names like 45ACIDBABIES, néomí, fuis, and Juliet, Robin has always been a creative chameleon. Yet with Neko, he strips everything back to reveal his most vulnerable and unfiltered artistic self.

This project isn’t about chasing trends—it’s about truth. With Neko, every lyric, every note, and every pause is intentional, designed to take listeners on an emotional journey that feels as raw as it does transformative.

A Sound That Balances Chaos and Silence

Neko’s music is built on contrasts. One moment, the arrangements are minimalistic whispers, allowing every word to land with intimacy. The next, they erupt into bombastic crescendos, shaking listeners to their core.

What makes these shifts so compelling is the way silence is treated as an instrument in itself. After moments of sonic chaos, the quiet spaces feel almost deafening—forcing you to sit with the emotions stirred up in the storm. It’s in these moments that Neko’s artistry shines, allowing both tension and beauty to coexist.

An Invitation to Self-Exploration

Listening to Neko is not a passive experience—it’s an invitation. Each song is a mirror, reflecting not just the artist’s inner world but the listener’s own unspoken truths. It’s catharsis through sound, a reminder that beauty and pain often live side by side.

Whether performed in an intimate venue or captured in the studio, Neko’s music has a way of making you feel seen, understood, and maybe even a little braver about facing your own vulnerabilities.

The Legacy Behind the Name

Robin de Geus’s musical history has shaped Neko’s unique voice. His work with 45ACIDBABIES brought high-energy, genre-bending experimentation to the forefront. Collaborations with néomí and other projects have deepened his understanding of songwriting’s emotional core.

Now, as Neko, he channels all of these experiences into music that is both innovative and deeply personal. It’s not about reinvention for its own sake—it’s about distilling a lifetime of artistic exploration into its purest form.
