San Francisco’s AURSJOEN, driven by Ria Aursjoen, unveils her debut ‘Strand’ EP, featuring the mystical single “Apollo.” Produced by goth legend William Faith, the EP fuses Aursjoen’s Nordic roots with ethereal, darkwave elements. Aursjoen, a classically-trained singer with synesthetic abilities, draws inspiration from personal experiences and musical influences, shaping a unique sonic landscape that captures both light and dark.
As “Apollo” explores the voice as a powerful instrument, blending themes of summoning and creative expression, it invites listeners to consider how music can transcend mere sound to evoke deeper emotional connections.
