Moodyy, the talented artist, songwriter and creative from Virginia, has finally released his highly anticipated debut album, ASCENSION. The emotionally charged and captivating album takes listeners on a profound journey through the artist’s heart and soul, unravelling the layers of his experiences and inner struggles.
ASCENSION is a testament to the strength of the human spirit, fearlessly delving into Moodyy’s personal story of artistry, pain and resilience. Through ten soul-stirring tracks, the artist shares his journey of healing and transformation, confronting the traumas that have shaped his path. The album is a powerful conversation starter, touching on themes of destiny, self-discovery and rebuilding a fractured foundation.
Each song on ASCENSION is a mesmerising blend of soulful vocals and stunning instrumentation, creating an unforgettable voyage that transcends pain and reaches for the light. Moodyy’s music offers solace and understanding to those facing adversity, providing an escape and connection for listeners searching for hope.

Alongside these compelling tracks, ASCENSION also introduces the must-hear new single, “MOOD SWINGS”, which is accompanied by a powerful live performance video. Reflecting on the creation of ASCENSION, Moodyy shares, “I was at a point in my life where I needed to change for myself. Everything felt so mundane, and I wanted to add some light to the world. The entirety of ASCENSION is meant to heal and remind you of who you are.”
Moodyy continues, “ASCENSION is a journey through unlocking your mental peace, breaking down barriers and becoming more loving to yourself through the turmoil. I never had anyone to speak to about these inner feelings, so I decided to put it on record for others to connect.”
Born in Fairfax, Virginia, Moodyy’s love for music blossomed from life experiences and the art of storytelling. Growing up in a Sudanese community, his music reflects his roots and embraces themes that speak on mental health and living a holistic lifestyle. Now, with ASCENSION, Moodyy has solidified his position as a rising artist to watch. ASCENSION is available to buy/stream now on all platforms: https://snd.click/hspa.

Aaron Koenig Releases Ska Anthem for Geeks
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.
