Midnight Mystery Club Returns in 2024 with album, ‘Aesthetics Vol.1’

Indie dance duo MIDNIGHT MYSTERY CLUB enters into 2024 with all guns blazing with their latest album, ‘Aesthetics Vol.1’, released earlier this month, 11th January.

Known for their blurringly chilled and spanky pieces that’s fit for lounging in the balearic sun, the guys have taken a slightly different direction, adopting a deeper and darker baseline that offers another form of tranquility. Having said that, towards the ending of the collection, ‘Stay Young Forever’ and ‘Only Dancing’ somewhat retains the trademark of vibrantly mesmerising soundscapes which radiates a warm sunny glow.

It’s great to see that Midnight Mystery Club are back in good form, using their stellar skills as producers. Their latest album just displays that they were very worthy of being winners of 2018 Independent Music Awards in the Electronic/Dance Producers of the Year.

R&B artist Nyreisha shares smooth joint, ‘Wanna Umm’ ft. Devvon Terrell

Hailing from the streets of San Diego, California, singer-songwriter NYREISHA has been belting out the classics since she was able to walk. At just age five, she had already been performing Shanice Wilson’s ‘Yesterday,’ and Mary J. Blige’s ‘I’m Goin’ Down,’ like they were her own.

It wasn’t until the year 2007, when she’d sang along to Fergie’s ‘Big Girl’s Don’t Cry,’ that Nyreisha realized she had a real gift, and that music was the only thing her heart wanted to beat for, for the rest of her life.

In 2018, after many years of learning and perfecting her vocal abilities, she wrote and recorded her first single entitled, ‘Vibe.’ It was only up from there. Nyreisha discovered her passion not just for singing, but for writing lyrics as well. This led to countless hours of writing and recording in the studio and eventually paved the way for her to write her greatest single yet, ‘Wanna Umm’ featuring Devvon Terrell.

Nyreisha wholeheartedly believes in two things: that music is a universal language and that no one makes it anywhere without love. Through her passion for writing and singing, she looks forward to sharing all her newest songs and creative visuals, and ultimately taking the world by storm, one heart at a time. “Life goes one way, and that’s forward, so let’s move with love.” -Nyreisha
