welcome to the new year — to have you back in our (digital) arms feels so sweet. the possibilities that lay ahead of you are endless, there’s so much more joy and grief and warmth and growth to be felt, and we cannot wait to share in that, with you.

it’s been a minute but once we caught wind of Aaliyah Salem (@aaliyahsalem ), we knew our hiatus had to end. 

the thing to know about Aaliyah is that, well, she is that girl.
Aaliyah has a rare gift for creating a space where music and movement align, ever evolving and pushing the listener towards something far greater than themselves — this mix is no exception — transformation lays thick in the air, hitting hard in all the right spots.

so press play and allow Aaliyah to shift your sights for the promised land. let the notes wash over you like waves - some with quietude, some with strength. 
what do you hope for this year? what do you see? what can you feel? these questions can be scary, we know, but allow these sounds to guide you down a path of gentle introspection - you will not go it alone.

love still exists and Aaliyah a reminder of where to find it.
