The NYC/Tokyo artist returns with an analog, driving single about refusing to stay in the shadows. Recorded live and mixed by Andros Rodriguez, Silhouette carries a clear sense of intention as Bam prepares his debut album Sometimes I Forget to Breathe.
On the day her debut single arrives, the songwriter who splits her time between El Paso and Burgundy turns a 3:35 AM moment of honesty into a public invitation. “I Want To See Your Fire” is out now and asks to be played loud.
The producer and DJ talks about the star that gave the track its name, the physical memory he still carries from his years as a Latin dancer, and the quiet precision he brings to music built for real rooms.
The Karlsruhe band keep their raw alternative edge while letting unexpected brass and unsparing lyrics carry both personal fracture and political analysis. We talk about idols, visibility, and the choice to keep the hooks sharp.
The Los Angeles artist moves from the noise of societal division to the quieter fractures inside a relationship, but the throughline stays the same: the courage to stop blaming and start understanding.
Kae Sera returns with The Moon (Sommernacht Remix), a late-night house reworking of her most streamed and most covered track to date.

In conversation with A.G. Syjuco about solitude, domestic dread, family legacy and the intimate new EP that turns an unopened box into a profound meditation on presence.
