CMU Approved
Approved: Aro Vana
By Andy Malt | Published on Wednesday 23 May 2018
Newcomer Aro Vana has made a bold entrance with her debut EP, ‘Origin’. Her dark, densely-layered pop is tightly produced, with vocals sung with the flow of a rapper.
“An origin is the beginning of everything, and so it is with this”, she says of the release. “Each song represents a piece of the basis of why I write; for the love, for the mind, for the experiences, be they dark of light – the acceptance of both within us is what makes us human. It’s okay to have dark thoughts”.
The EP is led by the single ‘XVII’, the video for which you can watch here:
