I'm super excited to share with you my latest project, the FLUX EP, which dropped on November 3, 2023. This FLUX EP is a collection of five tracks that I've poured my heart and soul into: "Red Planet", "Vista", "Ex", "York", and "Bloom". Each track is a unique exploration of sound, with "Ex" being one of the most experimental. You can check it out on SoundCloud.

My journey in music began back in 2017, and it's been a wild ride since then. I've dabbled in a variety of genres, resulting in a unique fusion of sounds that I'm proud to call my own. The years 2020-2021 were particularly significant for me, as I released three EPs and the NOVA LP. To celebrate the release of the FLUX EP, I hosted a listening party where I got to connect with you, my amazing fans. We listened to the music together and chatted about my creative process. It was such a blast!

Plus, there's a visualizer for the EP available on YouTube for you to enjoy. The FLUX EP is more than just a collection of tracks. It's a reflection of my journey as a musician, showcasing my love for creating atmospheric soundscapes that blend elements of techno. I hope you enjoy listening to it as much as I enjoyed creating it.

Thanks for all your support!

Here is an exclusive look at the cover (which I’m so proud of) & a preview of what to expect inside. A huge thank you to the legendary Naomi Campbell + all of the wonderful & iconic women that gave beautiful quotes & support for my first book.    The HW Fashion Activity book has a collection of glamorous, customisable fashion illustrations for you to colour in. There’s also paper dolls that you can spend hours creating your own fashion designs for, like I do! The illustrations are a combo of brand-new exclusive pieces created specifically for the book + some classics from my archives that have all been transformed into customisable artworks to colour in. The fashion stylings & designs take inspo from some of my favourite eras & aesthetics that have influenced me. A throwback to some of my earlier style of work, with vintage inspo from 50s old Hollywood glamour, combined with my love of pop culture & the more current fashion styles of today and beyond!    Creating this book was a lot of hard work, but also a lot of fun, & I truly put my all into it. I would’ve loved seeing something like this on shelves as a child, and now I’ve created it!!

Discover "Atlas" – The First Single from My New EP, Gemini

Dear NCTRNMTRIBE,

I’m excited to share my latest single, "Atlas," which marks the first release from my upcoming EP Gemini. This track is part of the PIXEL trilogy, including Flux and the final EP, PIXEL.

Why a Trilogy? - Innovative Release Strategy: By releasing the project in segments, I aim to maintain a dynamic connection with you, offering a more profound experience of each part over time. - Sustained Engagement: This format extends the project's journey, allowing me to share my creative evolution with you more intimately.

About Gemini and "Atlas" Inspired by a period of personal introspection, Gemini delves into the complexities of the human psyche with intricate melodies and thoughtful compositions. "Atlas" sets the stage for this exploration, blending evocative sounds with profound themes.

Thank you for being so supportive, and I hope you enjoy ""Atlas" as much as I enjoyed creating it!

Love, Nctrnm

#NowPlaying: "Gossip" by Nctrnm

[nctrnm]

Reflecting back on this date two years ago, I released my third album, NOVA 🎶. At that time, I was working on it while dealing with the challenges of securing enough money to rent a place with my partner and managing my music business from a shelter bunk. It was a difficult period, but creating this album served as an aural escape from the instability of 2020 🎧.

Now, in my junior year of college, I'm working on new music, some of which will be released this year. Looking back, NOVA is my most successful album to date, and features several of my best performing songs in my entire career🎉. I'm grateful for the evergreen support of my listeners, which has encouraged me to continue making the art that we all enjoy 💙.

The album is dedicated to my grandmother Wilma and my great aunt Vickie, who passed away towards the end of the album's production. Their wisdom and grace continue to guide me in my life and music 🕊️.

For those of you who have listened to NOVA, thank you so much 🙏🏽. If you haven't yet, I encourage you to check it out on my website at nova.nctrnm.com or on my Bandcamp page at nctrnm.bandcamp.com/album/NOVA

Hey NctrnmTribe 👋🏽,

“Atlas" received a write-up by Mexican blog Indie Dream. ☺️

Translated from Spanish: “With sober tunes, metallic and cold sounds, "Atlas" from "Nctrnm" surprises us and invites us to introspection and self-improvement with this melody that is 3 and a half minutes long.

Read the rest of the feature here.

With Love,

Nctrnm 😁❤️

The GEMINI era is a whole new chapter, and I can't believe it's finally here. This album dives deep, exploring themes I've been wrestling with for a while now: self-doubt, disillusionment, and transcendence. It's vulnerable, it's raw, and it's some of the most honest music I've ever made.

I'm so excited to share this journey with you and would love for you to join me for a special livestream intro to the album! Let's kick things off together.

Hey, Nctrnm Tribe, I'm thrilled to announce my new project, FLUX, an EP of songs that show my journey as a musician. It features Xeoul (fka Alpharaoh) 💙, my buddy and recent collaborator ☺️ ️. Making FLUX was about following my instincts and letting your creativity flow without pressure or constraints. ✨

I had a project called LIMINA earlier this year, which was based on the feedback I got for the four singles that dropped last year. LIMINA was supposed to capture the vibe of transitioning between two life phases. But as I worked on it, I realized it wasn't me. It felt too stiff and fake, and that's not how I make music. 🤔

So, I ditched LIMINA and started fresh with FLUX, a more real expression of who I am and where I am now, in a state of flux. Flux means change or flow, and that's what these songs are about. They reflect the changes I've gone through and the ones I'm still going through as a person and musician. Some songs are old (2019, TRACES era), and some are new (this summer), but they all have a common theme of being in FLUX and the feelings that come with being between stages. 🎶

I hope you dig listening to FLUX as much as I dug into making it. It's been a hard and rewarding journey, and I'm so thankful for your support and feedback. Stay tuned for more updates and sneak peeks soon! 😊
