Jupiter Grey Unveils New Single “Fires On The Moon” From Upcoming Album
“An artist who leans into his 80s influences, Jupiter Grey’s experimental take on R&B utilises differing aspects”—CLASH
UK alternative R&B act Jupiter Grey has returned with his new single, “Fires On The Moon”. The track follows an impressive run of singles over the past year from the London-based artist, including “Is It Ever The Same” and “From 80’s With Love”. “Fires On The Moon” is the title track from Jupiter’s upcoming debut album and looks set to continue his impressive rise.
The new single keeps in line with Jupiter’s signature sound of fusing experimental and futuristic sounds with retro ‘80s influences. Standing out with its infectious melodies, catchy hook and potent songwriting, “Fires On The Moon” is another impressive entry into the rising musician’s growing discography and whets the appetite for the forthcoming album.
Speaking more on the new release, Jupiter says, “‘Fires On The Moon’ is about connecting with someone on such a deep and spiritual level that what you thought you knew about love feels like it was all in your head. I’m talking about the kind of love that you would go to the end of the world for, a love so out of this world that you would do something extreme and unexplained like setting fires on the moon.”
Getting more impressive with each release, Jupiter has proven once again why he’s one to watch. Bringing something fresh and dynamic to the R&B scene and continually experimenting with his sound, Jupiter remains one of the most exciting rising artists in the genre. And with his debut album right around the corner, expect to see and hear plenty more from Jupiter in 2022. “Fires On The Moon” is available to buy/stream now on all platforms: https://ffm.to/firesonthemoon.

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.
