In the artist’s words: Describe one of your earliest musical memories in detail. My earliest musical memory is me playing on a friend's synth alone in my room. It was my first time playing on a keyboard and it's tone was so special. What are your top 3 all-time favorite albums on Apple Music, and why? Why did you choose these three albums in particular? John Legend, Get Lifted Kanye West, 808s & Heartbreak Yonderboi, Splendid Isolation Kanye West's 808s & Heartbreak - it's still one of my biggest musical inspirations John Legend's Get Lifted made me fall in love with singing and the piano Yonderboi's Splendid Isolation opened my mind to darker, cinematic soundscapes Find a song of yours on Apple Music that you love and tell us what makes it special. Tell us why you chose this song. “Hanei” Hanei is special to me because it's about rising above fear and conformity. A reminder that even in a chaotic world, we can find strength in authenticity. I wrote it to those who feel lost in the noise, encouraging them to embrace who they are. What’s one of the most memorable moments in your career so far? One of my most memorable moments was performing for the first time at Furality, where I truly felt the connection between my music and the audience. Another unforgettable milestone was collaborating with Kilhoffer on Unfolded. Is there anything left on your bucket list as an artist or band? My biggest goal is to leave a legacy that proves while being yourself you can still create professional music that connects with everyone. I want to show that hope, belief, and authenticity can bridge worlds and inspire others to dream bigger.
