Mylo Choy – ‘Moving Year’
About Mylo Choy
Mylo Choy has spent most of their life between contrasting environments. Growing up in Wisconsin, they maintained a connection to Hawai’i where their mother is from. For years they worked in outdoor education, living between the woods and New York City. They find comfort and clarity in the space between things.

Cyrano – ‘Tundra’
About Cyrano
Cyrano is music for the late night overthinkers.
The Scottish producer and multi-instrumentalist welcomes listeners into the idiosyncrasies of his indie for dusk with new single Tundra: an honest exploration of social anxiety, personified in leftfield beats with electronic soul. Consoling us with the constant lyrical mantra “but I’ve never really lost my mind”, Cyrano reminds us to battle on when things feel like they’re falling apart.
Sharing the production duties with Foals’ Kit Monteith, the pair experiment with the sounds of artists like Arab Strap, J Dilla and Young Fathers to carry us through multiple genres, from 90s techno to 00s hip hop.
While Cyrano’s voice confidently glides within melodic tapestries, eclectic samples combine with heavy beats to leave the listener in sonic hypnosis.

ASW – ‘Soil and the Seed’
About ASW
After remixing Galantis and Icona Pop and tracks with CADE and FrankMusik through the production duo Ari, Pacific Northwest raised Alex Wagner has split off to revive his solo project ASW. This new exploration of ASW combines alternative rock, psychedelia, progressive house, and more all under one hood to tell stories he’s wanted to tell his whole life.
As a proud gay man who has struggled with bipolar disorder, Wagner has dedicated his art and music towards raising funds and awareness for Crisis Text Line, a nonprofit that acts as a text-based resource for those in crisis.
Following his bipolar disorder diagnosis in 2013, Wagner was placed on an involuntary hold for a week in a hospital’s mental health wing. Since then, his mental health recovery led him to volunteer 200 hours over the last year with Crisis Text Line, listening to people and bringing them to a state of calm. In the midst of an isolating global pandemic that saw the number of people with symptoms of mental health disorders climb from 10% to over 41% in less than two years, Wagner’s mission is to soothe those struggling with his volunteerism and music.

Teddy Weeks – ‘This too Shall Pass’
About Teddy Weeks
Weeks is a Colorado based songwriter, who was born and raised in Baltimore, Maryland. He came to Colorado to study Physics and Music in College. Teddy attributes this interesting combination to Talking Heads’ frontman David Byrne’s book How music works.
After College Weeks wrote 2 songs for top 10 artists in 2018 after being discovered in an impromptu recording session. “He (the producer) said I had a very strange voice that wouldn’t intimidate artists trying to re-record my scratch vocals; which I always thought was a great line. It’s good to be strange”
Weeks’ first full length album Satisfy Me, comes out July 16. This album is a direct response to the content fueled world we live in; where importance seems to be placed on quantity over quality. This collection of songs questions: our leaders (show me the way), cell phones (addicted to you), and if anything will ever appease us (satisfy me)
