BermudaCal Makes Impressive Return With Phenomenal New Release “GOD”
Independent artist BermudaCal is set to captivate audiences with his latest release, “GOD”, a dynamic and euphoric hip-hop track that explores the depths of doubt and introspection. This single serves as a compelling precursor to BermudaCal’s forthcoming album, The Divinity of Doubt, slated for release in the coming months.
BermudaCal, born in Bermuda to Scottish parents, has carved out a distinctive niche in the music industry, blending his background in jazz seamlessly with elements of hip-hop, trap, UK garage and house. Influenced by a diverse array of artists such as Post Malone, Frank Ocean, Mac Miller, Anderson .Paak and jazz legends like Dexter Gordon, Miles Davis and Charlie Parker, BermudaCal’s unique sound is characterised by melodic hooks and standout saxophone solos.
“GOD”, as the lead single from The Divinity of Doubt, showcases BermudaCal’s musical evolution and storytelling prowess. The track delves into themes of existential questioning as BermudaCal engages in a conversation with God, questioning the very fabric of his beliefs and existence. The song oscillates between moments of intensity and introspection, capturing the artist’s internal dialogue and struggles with doubt. The track arrives alongside an equally impressive music video directed by Edd Roberts.
Reflecting on the creation of “GOD”, BermudaCal shares, “This track was the catalyst for my debut album. It explores the theme of doubting the existence of a higher power. I composed the beat about a year and a half ago, and the lyrics flowed effortlessly during a session by the beach. The music video, created with minimal resources and a lot of heart, is a testament to the dedication of my friends who supported the project, understanding the challenges faced by an independent artist.”
As “GOD” makes its mark on the music scene, BermudaCal invites fans to join him on this introspective and soul-searching musical journey. The forthcoming album, The Divinity of Doubt, promises to further showcase the artist’s versatility and unique fusion of genres. “GOD” is available to buy/stream now on all platforms.

Aaron makes music about meaningful topics that rocks and grooves – and sometimes it even skanks on a rock steady beat!
His new song ‘Geeks’ has been released on all major music platforms on November 15th. It is an anthem for the heroes of the digital age: computer nerds, also known as geeks. It is driven by an off-beat ska guitar, a sticky bass line and a groovy brass section. The icing on the cake is a jazzy saxophone solo.
“I have always loved Ska, I even saw the Specials, the Selecter and Madness live in their heydays”, says Aaron. “I chose the topic although I am not a geek myself, but I have a lot of sympathy for them. Geeks are often frowned upon because they can be socially awkward, but they are the ones who are building a better world. So I think they deserve an anthem.”
The music video is mostly made up of typography, minimalistic ASCII graphics and heavily pixelated images – it surely looks geeky! Watch it here:
Aaron writes catchy songs that are made for people who like meaningful, uplifting topics and guitar-driven, hand-made sounds. His musical journey started young but it wasn’t until he discovered Bitcoin and became so invested in it that he used music to express his new found joy.
“It’s mostly rock music, with excursions into funk, soul and other styles I grew up with. In general, it’s guitar-driven and hand-made, often with a punkish energy and beatlesque harmonies. What all my songs have in common are meaningful lyrics about being in the here and now, about transforming disturbing emotions into wisdom, about being in the flow, things like that.” says Aaron in an interview.
“I have always been making music and writing songs, starting with a punk rock band when I was 15. However, I never saw it as a career. I played in several bands in my teenage years and my early twenties, but after my media studies in Berlin and Rio de Janeiro I focused on other things. I first worked in TV production and then founded one of the first Internet agencies in Germany. I discovered Bitcoin in 2011 and became fascinated by it. I wrote five books about it, made lots of promotional videos and educational series for Bitcoin and blockchain companies, and organised events. I even wrote some songs about Bitcoin, which became quite popular in the community, like my Reggaeton about the Bitcoin Beach in El Salvador. People always liked that my songs are catchy and provocative. It was by the end of 2023 that I decided to go full in on music. It’s what I enjoy the most, so now I want to fully follow my passion.”
Since May 2024, his songs have been streamed more than 250,000 times on Spotify and his music videos have been viewed more than 350,000 times on YouTube.
