Akashic Gods is undergoing a thrilling reinvention of her style and sound. Transitioning from the dance music scene, where she earned the admiration of superstar DJs like David Guetta and Fatboy Slim, she is now embracing a more authentic, punk rock-infused identity. This shift highlights her commitment to producing art that is true to herself and deeply resonates with her audience.
As a seasoned performer, Akashic Gods has graced the stage at prestigious events including supporting SHALAMAR, performing at the McMillan Cancer Music Festival, Radio 1 Live Roadshows, and Arthur Baker's 'Return to New York' event. Her accolades include being featured in The Daily Mirror Newspaper's 'Streets of Peace' campaign and winning Notting Hill's local Rockstar award. She has also toured with Secret Life, performing their hit ‘As Always’ (Stevie Wonder), and has electrified audiences at London's most exclusive nightclubs and events.
Returning to her roots, Akashic Gods makes a powerful statement with her debut single, "Gods & Machines." This track is a testament to her complex songwriting and luminous artistry, blending sophistication and edge seamlessly. The song showcases her dynamic songwriting, captivating musicianship, and intoxicating vocals, revealing a depth of creativity and emotional expression that is both refreshing and compelling.
"Gods & Machines" is an enthusiastic alternative, indie-punk anthem, channelling the raw energy and flavorful songwriting of legends like David Bowie, Grace Jones, and Lenny Kravitz. The song features a robust mix of bass, guitars, drums, and beats, complemented by her vibrant, understated vocal delivery. This fusion of vigorous undercurrents and ethereal edges creates a memorable and accessible yet thoughtful soundscape that feels revolutionary.
The single originated from her ‘Orbit To Landfall’ project, crafted during the pandemic and recorded at Carlone Music Productions' Firm House studios. With razor-sharp live bass and lead guitars by Alan Riggs, former guitarist for Delta 5, the track builds on the legacy of their song "Mind Your Own Business," which gained renewed attention from an Apple TV commercial three years ago.
Akashic Gods further demonstrates her versatility as an artist with a tapestry of expressive reality, resonant lyricism, lingering melodies, and fascinating storytelling. She skillfully combines emotional depth with serenity, encapsulating the spirit of a masterpiece debut single.
On the release, Akashic Gods poignantly shares, “‘Greater is He who’s in us, than He who’s in the World’ – Gods vs Mankind’s cosmic battle.” This philosophical and spiritual reflection underscores the thematic depth of her music.
"Gods & Machines" marks an exciting chapter in Akashic Gods' career, showcasing her natural ability and personal development within the music industry. Her unparalleled talent and creative and affectionate attitude shine through, enabling her to fluidly traverse multiple genres with ease and authenticity. This single not only heralds her return but also solidifies her place as a formidable and innovative force in music.
