Cybèle Shares Heartfelt Ballad “In Another Life,” Evoking Love and Destiny
Cybèle, the French-Chinese-American singer and songwriter, has released her latest single, “In Another Life,” offering fans a deeply romantic and cinematic take on love at first sight. The song, the first ballad from her upcoming debut album Paradise, blends R&B, pop, and lush orchestral arrangements to create a track that feels both modern and timeless.
The single emerged during a pivotal creative break from Cybèle’s studies at Harvard and Berklee. Inspired by looping Stevie Wonder and Michael Jackson, she envisioned a love that transcends time, transforming the song into an exploration of soul-level connection. “It’s about being seen, soul to soul,” she explains, highlighting the universal appeal of the lyrics.
Cybèle’s impressive performance history includes legendary venues such as the Apollo Theater and Staples Center, along with private performances for music icons and public figures alike. She has also contributed her voice to campaigns for global brands and philanthropic projects, demonstrating her versatility both on stage and in the studio.
Musically, “In Another Life” positions Cybèle among contemporary pop and R&B luminaries, yet her cinematic approach gives the song an individuality that resonates with listeners seeking both emotional depth and pop sensibility. Her voice glides effortlessly over the orchestral instrumentation, striking a balance between technical finesse and heartfelt expression.
As fans eagerly await Paradise, “In Another Life” offers a compelling preview of Cybèle’s debut. The single showcases a young artist with global experience, academic rigor, and a cinematic vision, establishing her as one of the most exciting new voices in contemporary pop.
Ten years after Host Bodies first released the album Daily Apparatus, “On A Roll” has found a completely new groove.
For the Daily Apparatus: 10 Year Remixes project, multi-instrumentalist and producer Nicholas Hasty, under his Soul Glitch moniker, takes the original electronic-rock track and pulls it into deeper, more psychedelic territory.
The remix keeps the energy of Host Bodies intact while opening up the track with new beats, electronic textures and expressive saxophone solos. Electric guitar, bass and layered production give it a rich, genre-blurring sound that sits somewhere between indie electronic, jazztronica, soultronica and alternative dance.
There’s something particularly satisfying about hearing a decade-old track treated not as a relic, but as raw material. Soul Glitch reshapes “On A Roll” , finding new spaces within the original and bringing his own musical language into the mix.
The result is energetic, sensual, psychedelic and unapologetically expansive.
Ten years on, “On A Roll” proves that sometimes the best way to celebrate where a song came from is to find somewhere completely new for it to go.
