Rotterdam musician Shaynah is once again captivating the music scene with her latest single, “Let That Go”, a mesmerising R&B/neo-soul track that features Grammy-nominated artist Tiffany Gouché. This release comes as Shaynah’s upcoming EP, NAKED, nears its highly anticipated debut. The EP marks the third and final chapter of Shaynah’s complete album, Chapter 22, set to be released at the top of next year.

Born into a world of melodies and harmonies, Shaynah’s musical journey was ignited by her accomplished musician parents, who served as her guiding lights. She is not only a talented singer and songwriter but has also delved into music production, creating enchanting melodies for theatrical performances and musicals. Additionally, Shaynah has taken on acting roles in various plays, establishing herself as a pure creative at heart.

Shaynah’s previous release and NAKED’s first single, “Fair Play”, received critical acclaim earlier this year, setting the stage for the release of “Let That Go”. This new track is set to sweep listeners off their feet with its sultry harmonies, groovy beats and a heartfelt message that encourages breaking free from dating norms and embracing love’s unpredictable journey.

With influences harkening back to the golden era of R&B in the ’90s and ’00s, “Let That Go” is an anthem that will resonate with fans of artists such as Brandy, Victoria Monét and India Shawn. The song’s production is a testament to Shaynah’s multifaceted talent, as she skilfully produced the track herself.

In Shaynah’s own words, “‘Let That Go’ is my second self-produced single (of the final EP, NAKED, of my Chapter 22 trilogy) speaking on love, loss and finding my adult self through it all. Joined by Tiffany Gouché, ‘Let That Go’ delves into the interplay between the dream world and reality, our unspoken thoughts versus our spoken words. Tiffany and I navigate the unspoken expectations in dating or meeting new people, embracing the ambiguity as we explore what we truly desire while trying to stay relaxed and going with the flow.” 

With a creative spirit as vast as Shaynah’s, the future of music is certainly bright. “Let That Go” is poised to leave an indelible mark on the music scene and become a staple for anyone seeking an authentic R&B experience. “Let That Go” is available to buy/stream now on all platforms: https://vokall.lnk.to/letthatgo.

Feelgood Frequencies: Why CR Srikanth’s “Dancing in the Dark – VS Pop™” Is The Sonic Hug You Didn’t Know You Needed

Published

If you’ve been looking for a track that feels like a warm, nostalgic hug wrapped in shimmering synths, CR Srikanth’s new single “Dancing in the Dark – VS Pop™” might be exactly what you need. It offers a beautiful balance of emotional depth and danceable energy, pulling you out of your head and into a place where you can just breathe, feel, and move. In a world that often feels overwhelming, this track delivers a sense of calm and release.

Srikanth, a US-based Indian composer and sonic storyteller, has carved out a unique musical space with his self-created genre, VS Pop™ (Very Smooth Pop). Drawing from vintage 1980s synthpop, ambient soundscapes, and cinematic orchestral touches, he’s crafted a style that feels both familiar and forward-thinking. “Dancing in the Dark” continues that evolution. It is at once intimate and expansive, polished yet deeply human.

The track features vocals from Junior Paez, whose delivery adds emotional texture to the lyrics. There’s a quiet honesty in lines like “Don’t you think you’re losing your mind again?” and “Hold on, I’ll take you a little higher tonight.” These words speak to the chaos we often feel inside, but instead of staying stuck there, the song encourages movement, connection, and hope. It is music that acknowledges the darkness but chooses to dance through it anyway.

The production is rich with shimmering arpeggiators, retro synth bass, and crisp electronic drums. It brings together nostalgia and futurism in a way that feels effortless. Imagine flickering neon lights, soft motion blur, and the kind of energy that makes you want to close your eyes and sway. It is cinematic but never overwhelming. Every layer serves the emotion at the heart of the track.

What makes “Dancing in the Dark” so appealing is how well it adapts to your mood. Whether you’re heading out for a solo night drive, setting the vibe for a weekend gathering, or simply lying on your bed in need of a reset, this song fits the moment. It never pushes too hard, but it always lands exactly where it needs to. There is something comforting about how sure of itself it feels.

CR Srikanth is not just making music for the sake of it. He is building emotional landscapes for listeners to get lost in and to find themselves again. With “Dancing in the Dark – VS Pop™,” he offers more than just a catchy tune. He gives us space to reflect, to feel seen, and to find joy in the act of simply moving forward. So press play, turn it up, and let yourself be lifted. This one’s for the heart, the soul, and the feet.
