Energy Whores make invisibility four times as loud with “Invisible”

Published

What happens when you take one song about feeling unseen and let it exist in four completely different worlds?

Well, Energy Whores just found out.

The genre-defying electronic project led by New York songwriter, vocalist and producer Carrie Schoenfeld has released “Invisible (Four Ways)”, an ambitious reimagining of the same composition across Synth-Pop, Lo-Fi, Cinematic and Indie interpretations.

And no, these aren’t just your standard remixes.

They’re four different emotional universes.

At the heart of “Invisible” is something almost everyone understands — that strange feeling of being right there in the room, right there in the world, and somehow still not being seen.

Overlooked.

Disconnected.

Transparent.

Energy Whores puts it perfectly:

“Invisible is about what it feels like to be standing right there and still not be seen — to become transparent to the people and the world around you.”

But here’s where things get interesting.

Instead of choosing one definitive version of the song, Schoenfeld asked a much more intriguing question:

What if the same story could feel completely different depending on how you hear it?

And so, “Invisible” became four songs in one.

The polished rush of the Synth-Pop version brings immediacy and momentum. The Lo-Fi version pulls everything inward, surrounding the lyrics with intimacy and haze. Then comes the sweeping drama of the Cinematic version, before the Indie version strips things back toward something more organic and raw.

Same lyrics.

Same melodic DNA.

Completely different emotional worlds.

Working alongside Grant (NYC), who produced, mixed and mastered the project, Schoenfeld reshaped synthesizers, piano, keyboards, electric guitar, bass, electronic drums, percussion, programmed elements, atmospheric textures and vocals across each interpretation.

Because sometimes the music around a story changes the story itself.

And that spirit of experimentation is nothing new for Energy Whores.

The project has carved out a space somewhere between synth-pop, art rock, electronic experimentation and politically charged alternative music, tackling everything from war and authoritarianism to climate collapse, consumer culture and technological alienation.

Basically, if the modern world is getting weird, Energy Whores has something to say about it.

And Carrie Schoenfeld brings a visual imagination to the project that matches its musical ambition. A classically trained pianist who studied at Mannes as a child, she later moved into visual art and independent film before returning to songwriting and production. Today, she creates and directs the project’s music videos and visual concepts, treating the visual world as an essential part of the music rather than simply something that accompanies it.

Following the 2026 album Arsenal of Democracy, along with releases including “Fade to Gray” and “Planet B”, “Invisible (Four Ways)” feels like another bold step into the unknown.

With touchstones ranging from Massive Attack and Portishead to Björk, St. Vincent, Depeche Mode and Radiohead, Energy Whores continues to blur the lines between electronic music, alternative songwriting and experimental pop.

Four versions.

One song.

One feeling that almost all of us know.

Because maybe being invisible doesn’t always look the same.

Maybe it sounds different depending on where you’re standing.

And maybe sometimes, the best way to be seen…

is to make some noise. 🖤

Naomi Aguilera casts her spell with her new single BB ILY

Published

Two years ago, Naomi Aguilera walked onto my radar with EGO, an infectious soulful pop debut that made it impossible not to move. Fast forward to her debut EP Mosaïques, and it was clear she wasn’t just passing through. Personal, colorful, rooted in her Spanish heritage & Brussels upbringing, it even earned her a spot as Apple Music Benelux’s Up Next artist!

Now she’s back with BB ILY, marking the start of a new era. The bilingual single — French and English — is built around one of the most universal human experiences: that special connection that doesn’t need translation. Where EGO invited you to forget your ex on the dancefloor, BB ILY pulls you somewhere more intimate: with sultry beats courtesy of Turana, it’s a dance where gestures, whispers, sighs and the sound of a voice matters more than the words that come out of it… It’s sensual, a little mystical, and entirely her own.

First taste of Naomi Aguilera’s upcoming project Ojalá, due in 2027, it feels effortlessly catchy. This is the kind of track that casts its spell quietly, with interesting and unexpected rhythmic shifts in the verses, and a delicious chorus that lodges itself in your head before you even notice. By the time you do, it’s too late. But you won’t find me complaining about it!
