Los Angeles producer, composer, and all-around sonic architect Yash Kapoor just dropped his newest single “Secrets In Your Eyes,” and honestly, it’s giving a midnight psychological thriller you definitely shouldn’t be listening to alone. This isn’t some copy-paste pop release thrown together in a bedroom laptop session. Yash built this world with over 150 production layers, sculpting every synth, breath, and shadow into a sound that feels less like a song and more like a chase scene through your own subconscious.


If you’ve followed his behind-the-scenes grind, you already know Yash isn’t new to high-level creative ecosystems. A Berklee grad with credits connected to XO, years assisting major producer DaHeala, and time spent inside the creative circles of Belly and NAV, he’s trained in precision. But what makes this track snap is the emotion underneath the engineering. His music lives in that perfect tension between cinematic darkness and vulnerable confession, as if the Thriller era collided with the minimalist tension of The Weeknd’s newer albums.


“Secrets In Your Eyes” sits right in that pocket, unraveling the story of someone losing themselves in a relationship that feels both magnetic and dangerous. Yash drags us into a fever dream where obsession, control, and identity blur. The chorus hits as a warning whispered in the dark, “I’m not alone… I don’t recognize myself,” turning the hook into a mirror you might not want to look into for too long.


The production flex is unreal. Haunted ambient synths, distorted textures, cinematic drum hits, and a sonic universe that keeps tightening around the listener until you feel the psychological claustrophobia of the narrative. It plays like you’re sprinting through fog, chasing someone, or maybe being chased by your own reflection.


This release isn’t just a single. It’s Yash stepping fully into his solo-artist era, building a world where pop songwriting merges with film-score tension and psychological sound design. And yes, this is only the beginning. He’s currently prepping his debut album, dropping next year, plus a run of major EP collaborations with rising indie artists across LA.
