April 24, 2024 Nastiya Kai unveils a new single and video, ‘Party At My House’

Nastiya Kai unveils a new single and video, ‘Party At My House’

Alt pop powerhouse Nastiya Kai is set to unleash another single and video, ‘Party At My House’, on April 19th, 2024 via her label Nastiya Kai Music. She has also announced the release of her debut album, Demon Era, set to drop later in 2024. ‘Party At My House’ follows the release of her haunting hit ‘Bury Me’ in October 2023, which received support from NOTION Magazine, CLASH Magazine, and EARMILK as well as landing her an interview with Numéro Magazine and airplay on Flux FM. With her music accumulating more than 141 500 streams and counting, the dark pop diva is carving a place for herself in pop’s prolific world, and she’s here to stay. Hailing from Moscow and now based in LA, Nastiya Kai is an entirely self-taught musician with a sound that has been compared to Caroline Polachek and Sub Urban. Carving a place for herself in the ever-growing pop world, her music is for fans of avant-pop luminaries such as Billie Eilish, Grimes and VÉRITÉ. 

‘Party At My House’ is a multifaceted composition that seamlessly melds avant-pop rhythms with glitchy ambient tones, culminating in a tender acoustic finale. The accompanying video, crafted in a DIY fashion, follows Nastiya as she navigates through a masked gathering, mirroring the themes of isolation and solitude embedded in the song. The forthcoming album assures a rich tapestry of feelings and musical styles, highlighting Nastiya Kai’s distinct prowess and unfiltered passion.

Nastiya Kai revealed: ‘Party At My House’ is a song about loneliness and what lengths one will go to to avoid feeling this way. This song is a little bit like a movie to me and describes a particular day in my life. It’s a glimpse in my subconscious really, I really wanted to tell my story here. It is an electronic party song with an underlying sense of anxiety and an unexpected change of narrative in the end. Exactly what a party you didn’t want to go to would feel like.”

March 18, 2024 Pink Sky unveil a scintillating single, ‘Incinerating’ featuring irreplica

Pink Sky unveil a scintillating single, ‘Incinerating’ featuring irreplica

LA-based husband-wife duo Pink Sky have teamed up with multi-instrumentalist irreplica on the lead single, ‘Incinerating’, from their forthcoming album Everything You Feel Is Real. For their live shows, Ryan and Angelica Hay are joined by a drummer and have enchanted audiences at major festivals such as SXSW, Midwest House, and Treefort Music Fest. The pair’s music spans a vast range of electronic music genres, from ambient to electronica to synth-based post-punk. Their intimate and emotive live shows persist as a defining feature of their artistry, showcasing their audio-visual project with performances in various settings and venues. Their previous albums, most notably Disenchantment and Total Devotion, have received critical acclaim, with features in Under The Radar Mag, Get Some Magazine, ADSR, Detroit News, and WDET Detroit NPR. Additionally, Pink Sky‘s remixes for artists like Taleen Kali, The French Tips, Virga, and Freddy Tyler Paul have further demonstrated their versatility and innovation in the electronic music scene.

‘Incinerating’ is a moody masterpiece driven by ricocheting industrial percussion, pulsing synths, and gritty bass, with ethereal, clear vocals floating through and tempering the distorted fray. The track narrates a journey of transformation and growth, drawing inspiration from 90s grunge, emotional upheaval, contemporary art, and dream revelations.

Pink Sky shared: “‘Incinerating’ is the story of someone who is falling out of balance and into a fiery state of agitation and chaos, an unseemly untended state, but rather than experience shame or frustration, the character instead is unaffected, without a care, that the secret garden she’d kept guarded inside for so long has overgrown and is now on display. What would have been previously horribly embarrassing and revealing is now treated as inevitable.”
