The origin story of Hitchhiker begins in 1953 with a Satellite circling Earth. As with many traditional and timeless tales, its hero embarked on a selfless quest to change the world... This legend follows a scientist who sent the Satellite into outer space in order to build an ideal sound that would evoke happiness. The scientist’s assistant—an A.I. Satellite—worked diligently to collect sounds from across the world to achieve this goal. Unfortunately, age caught up to the scientist, and he joined the celestial dust of the heavens, but the A.I. Satellite couldn’t and wouldn’t give up the journey. Instead, he made a robot from the body of the Satellite, adopting the apropos code name “Hitchhiker.” So, Hitchhiker jumped to earth to collect the sounds again. He crashed into South Korea first, garnering inspiration from the area’s different, diverse, and dynamic philosophies, art forms, and, of course, music. Wearing his self-constructed silver robot suit, he beamed the “Eleven” song and music video to the masses, and it palpably resounded across the globe in 2014. A beacon of positive energy, electronic elegance, K-Pop flavor, and pop bombast, the track introduced him to listeners everywhere. The quest is really just beginning though. Hitchhiker will be landing in cities around the globe to perform, and he’s hard at work on other evolutions. He leaves off, “I want people to take away something positive from everything I do. Music can truly heal.”
