Translating ferocity into sonic bliss, Notion chats with music’s brightest rising star, ASHWARYA, who is taking her music to new heights. The mind of ASHWARYA is a contagious labyrinth of neon colors and electrifying beats. The 21-year-old Melbourne native is disrupting the pop industry like a sonic tidal wave–and we can’t help but succumb to its trenches.

Having just released her debut EP ‘NOCTURNAL HOURS’ on July 8th, fans have finally gotten a taste of one of music’s rising stars. The 6-track collective puts the singer on the map as a musical shapeshifter able to blend genres so seamlessly she’s almost undefinable. If anything, ASHWARYA has created a customized world all her own. ‘NOCTURNAL HOURS’ is uniquely positioned to teleport its listeners into her tech-inspired atmosphere.

Her fierceness serving as the driving force towards inevitable successes, the songstress was quick to use 4 out of the 6 EP tracks as promotional singles [“PSYCHO HOLE,” “BIRYANI,” “COMIN@ME,” and “TO THE NIGHT (feat. Vic Mensa)”]. The unconventional tactics proved immediately lucrative, having already amassed total streaming numbers into the multi-millions. Well aware of her creative power, the ‘NOCTURNAL HOURS’ premiere came accompanied with a one-shot visual to the evocative ballad “LOVE AGAIN.” Heavily influenced by color and striking architecture, the poignant production fits into the same universe as the graphic roster of surrealist and modernist projects she’s solidified as an artist.
