Inspired by human nature in all its forms.

At first, influenced by old (when it used to be good) MTV, especially by trance, rock, raggae, underground. After it began it´s commercial journey, I´ve found my inspiration mostly in rock and metal, where I fell in love with the energy and fast beats it has. This was before I´ve discovered DnB, where this energy was mixed with purity of tunes, typical for trance. During that period (2003-2010) I´ve been playing piano, and later I´ve started learning playing drums. My experimentation with electronic music began in 2010 and since that I´ve made several tracks mixed genres trying to find my own style throughout the journey. As Johann Sebastian Bach, who in my view set the way the music evolved in its wholesomness like no one else in history, by producing the perfect balance of intelectualy complex tunes that could also evoke emotions and feelings at the same time - he also lived the idea that music comes from God and we are just a medium to bring it here to this world, to celebrate Him. That is and should be the main purpose of arts... regardless of from what feeling and thought each piece emerged... It's the character of life itself. We don´t wait until the song ends. We are listening to it, singing and dancing all along the way it plays.

Latvian singer/songwriter UP (Agnese Upleja) with her debut album Siren is probably the best-kept secret of the 2013 music scene. Siren flashes up like a newborn star in the black Nordic sky and lures you to follow her deeper into the night. Her distinct singing voice and extraordinary songwriting gift proves that at the Baltic seashore a new alternative dark-pop femme fatale is born.
Watch out, for the song of Siren is irresistible. There is no turning back for the ones who hear it.
