Abiyah Electronic/Trip Hop-Tinged Single ‘Mirror Flower’

Bookending the February 2019 release of Champion Plaque, her genre-blending single with Ceschi Ramos, Cincinnati-based songwriter and vocalist Abiyah delivered her single, ‘Mirror Flower’, to wrap the year. On Monday, December 30, 2019, the song hits Bandcamp, as well as digital streaming providers.

On this outing, Abiyah lyrically explores some of her inner emotional contemplations and how to navigate them on a journey to strength, self-empowerment, and happiness, backed by synth-driven melodies produced by electronic musician Warren Harrison. In both its thematic lyrical content and flowing vibed-out music, somewhat reminiscent of UK trip hop group Massive Attack, ‘Mirror Flower’ is highly relatable with strong crossover potential.

Mensa Deathsquad, the darkwave solo project from Brandon Phillips (The Architects, Other Americans, etc.) releases its debut album, Patient Zero, on January 14, 2020.

Patient Zero is a retro-futuristic aural attack swinging with broad, slashing strokes of inky dance floor gloom reminiscent of classic works by Depeche Mode, Jesus and Mary Chain and Sisters of Mercy. From front to back, Mensa Deathdquad delivers lethal radio-ready production without sacrificing retro fatalism.
