Centaur is the track, distinct as ever and continuing to strengthen the alternative rock and rap identity of an unmistakable HOLYMAMI. The song was inspired by the artists’ Sagittarius star sign, and acts as a personal ode to the symbol of the centaur. It’s an alter-ego, by all accounts, a declaration of self-expression that rings loud in everything from lyric to design to performance.
New Metal
Complex artistic sculpting akin to the days when each single was a creative ode to a story and sense of intention.

Jake Edwards and Kid Piccolo make up the Nu-er Metal act Human I Was, a creatively poignant and conceptually provocative act, with equal parts ambient and intense layers of expression all devoted to a single story.

“Music has always been a significant part of my life; I picked up the guitar in high school, although I’ve had my ups and downs with it. I’ve enjoyed creating content on YouTube for years, primarily doing song covers. However, I ventured into writing original music toward the end of 2023, and it’s been an exciting creative journey ever since.”
Having made the move from YouTuber to music-maker, HuffDaddy declares his approach as that of someone with an unrelenting love for the process. This quality shines beautifully in the music, presenting an hypnotic and catchy hit of escapism, whilst appearing to authentically scream out on behalf of those quietly painful intricacies of our existence.
Explosive and catchy in equal parts, perfectly in keeping with their ever defiant-opposition to mainstream expectation, indie rock legends Love Ghost team up with Cinnamon Babe, for the brilliantly-written new metal gem Do You Like Me Now?
Known for their fusion of smooth synths, intensely distorted guitars and the fierce crash of the drums, A Million Little Fires are also recognised for their thoughtful storytelling and inspiring sentiments.
