Keith Aaron Shares New Single ‘Lovestruck’
Singer-songwriter and producer Keith Aaron is ecstatic with the release of his brand-new single ‘Lovestruck’.
The dark fusion of R&B in ‘Lovestruck’ adds to the story about going through a breakup and realising that you were so infatuated with a person that you lost yourself in the relationship. To Keith Aaron, it means looking at yourself in the mirror and being completely honest and vulnerable to yourself. It means accepting the facts.
The R&B song demonstrates his enduring passion for music and his unparalleled ability to combine powerful lyrics with alluring sounds. Bass, drums, voices, pads, bass, arpeggiators, synths, and keys are all mixed together in this track. It’s a somber song that features a standout production and captivating vocals by Keith Aaron.
Speaking on the single, Keith Aaron shares, “I had recently gone through a breakup and realised that toward the end of the relationship, I wasn’t myself anymore. I had lost myself while I was giving my love to someone else. I felt like I was being controlled to think for myself, almost manipulated in a way. There were a lot of things that I needed to say and I had to lay it all out on this song.”
As a rising talent in the music industry, Keith Aaron is still making his imprint. He is well known for his excellent productions, his ever-expanding creative talents, and his general love of music, all of which influence his compositions.
London-based multi-instrumentalist and producer Waz-u returns with his second album, Preludes: Dusk Psalms, set for release on 16 May 2025 via independent label Biodiversity. The 15-track record further refines the artistic depth of his debut, blending electronic textures and classical compositional techniques in an intricate, immersive listening experience.
Ahead of the album release, Waz-u is dropping an exclusive vocal version of ‘Vermillion: G Major’ from the album, accompanied by its original instrumental version. ‘Vermillion’ with Lilyg will be released on 18 April 2025, evoking intimate indie-folk and pop and follows the release of a vocal version of ‘Lament’ with Tom Norrington. ‘The singles are a way to give a voice to the atmosphere of the record and to lyrically encapsulate some of the themes explored,’ explains Waz-u. ‘Lily and Tom are good friends of mine and have both been listening to early iterations of these preludes – it felt right to involve them directly on this record.’
‘Preludes: Dusk Psalms’ marks a new branch of Waz-u’s emerging sound, guided by the duality of tradition and innovation. Combining his musical roots in early ‘90s dub techno and classical music, the album weaves carefully layered synthesizers and electronics to evoke the ambience of sacred music — from the gentle timbres of a choir or an organ to the quiet, open, and reverberating spaces of a church. Also featured throughout the album is experimental musician G9 LUV, who creates textures and drones by bowing his bass guitar, resulting in cello-like sounds. The release follows Waz-u’s 2024 debut LP, Prayer For Dawn, which merged dub, techno, and electronica in an exploration of the ritualistic traditions associated with both organized religion and dance.
Bringing the album’s themes to life, Waz-u will celebrate the release of Preludes: Dusk Psalms with a special performance at Our Holy Redeemer in Clerkenwell, London on 14 May 2025. Set against the church’s resonant acoustics, the event will feature live performance arrangements, including a choir, with further details to be announced soon.
