Prime Society Debut Stunning New Release “Coffin”
Prime Society, the dynamic musical ensemble that seamlessly fuse rap, R&B, soul, funk and pop, have shared their latest single, “Coffin”. Originally formed in 2021 as a rap group in Phoenix, Arizona, Prime Society have evolved into a genre-blending band that pushes the boundaries of musical expression.
Comprising Juanton Soup on keys, Infin8 as the charismatic emcee, Shyheim on vocals and visual art, and J. Reid on bass, Prime Society draw inspiration from their diverse talents and shared church upbringing. The serendipitous meeting of brothers J. Reid and Infin8 with Shy at Arizona State University, along with the revelation that Juanton was J. Reid’s neighbour, solidified the formation of the group.
Transitioning from their roots in rap, Prime Society’s melodic R&B-inspired approach gained recognition with their breakout album, The World Is Yours, featuring the single “Paradise”, which reached an impressive #2 on the DRT internet radio charts. Renowned for their electrifying live performances, including a memorable set at the 2022 Burning Man Festival, the band have set their sights on achieving the highest success in the music industry.
With “Coffin”, Prime Society invite listeners to embrace the present moment and resist the urge to dwell on life’s minutiae. The track’s infectious groove and thought-provoking lyrics will resonate with fans of artists such as Childish Gambino, Anderson .Paak, Maroon 5 and Bruno Mars, showcasing the band’s versatility and artistic vision.
Reflecting on the release of “Coffin”, Prime Society share, “Don’t waste your life overthinking the little things… or anything. We created this track from a jam session at ‘The Dojo’. The main progression was spontaneously made by J and Juan, and then Shy started to hum the lyrics. We’ve worked on ‘Coffin’ since 2022, recording seven different renditions before settling on this version you hear today.” “Coffin” is available to buy/stream now on all platforms: https://primesociety.lnk.to/Coffin.

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.
