Late Hala crafts a cinematic sound combining soft vocals, minimal drums, atmospheric guitars and nostalgic synths, also bringing into play orchestral elements at times. Songwriting traits include reflective lyrics, artful chord transitions and catchy melodies which add a pop element. Late Hala is a London based songwriter, composer and multi instrumentalist whilst also employing various featured musical friends on drums, strings and vocals!  

Latest singles Dark Clouds & Never Had A Good Dream were produced alongside John Victor from English indie band Genghar. "Echoes of classic British songwriting – aligned to a 21st century pop sensibility" - BBC's Fresh On The Net

Gargyzaa is a one-man band located in Espoo, Finland.
 I play all the instruments manually (guitars, keyboards, bass, plastic  didgeridoo, Korg monotron duo, fipple flute etc.) and sing all the vocals. Plus I have written these lyrics and peculiar poetry/ bizarre dialogues you hear (in Finnish&English).
Some people have asked me who plays the instruments and I have answered them several times that it´s me who is responsible for all this trippy noise and musical weirdness.
It has been quite tedious and more or less irritating to explain this relatively often, hahaha.
I´m a also a self taught "musician" and "vocalist". I play by ear.
The drum parts are made from short loops with Audacity and then the so called rhythm track is upoaded to my Zoom R-24. After that I will start recording the instruments/vocals on top.
I don´t have or play drums. Well, maybe one day.
So basically I use Zoom R-24 to record and even master these tracks. I bring the finished "product" to SoundCloud through Audacity.
My equipment is very amateurish, cheap and in some cases semi-broken. 
I use those infamous progressive rock structures, but deliver them with a punk rock attitude/gear, hehehe.
The cover art/design is just basically a few collages/paste-ups, psychedelically distorted&enhanced pics and a couple of random photos I took. Nothing special.
This is a non-profit project. Enjoy!
Many thanks to all of my listeners and followers!
