New York City duo ASTR have made a name for themselves as 300's first signing. Their brand of urban-laced pop combines their penchant for cinematic miami vices with R&B drenched dreamscapes that garnered them notice on last year's Varsity EP and more recent releases like "Activate Me" produced by the iconic Rodney Jerkins better known as Darkchild who has worked with everyone from Mary J. Blige to Britney Spears.
Today, we have the exclusive premiere of their latest release. With a sparse intro, "Invincible" unleashes a quiet power as skittering synths and a stabbing beat fizz to the forefront like a blistering shot of pop as lead singer Zoe Silverman's spectral reverb bleeds through. Producer Adam Pallin explained to us over email "We were out in LA writing last Spring and it was a period of uncertainty while we were going through big changes with our team. Somehow that came through in this song as we finished it in NYC. It is one of our favorites from the Homecoming EP and seems very fitting as the cold weather swarmed in this week." Zoe added "Everybody wants to be strong but at some point there's a breaking point. Vulnerability makes you real."
Listen to "Invincible" below and look for it on ASTR's sophomore EP coming later this year. Catch ASTR on tour this November with Ryn Weaver and Holychild.
