Araya Drops Rocktronic-Fueled Breakup Ballad via New Melodic Bass Single "Flowers" ft. Luma on Heaven Sent

Denver-based ARAYA is a budding producer in the melodic bass world with a sound that expertly balances emotional weight and anthemic energy. Luma is a prolific singer/songwriter whose vocal talents have been spreading like wildfire across the dance space. Joining forces, the pair deliver “Flowers” on the burgeoning Heaven Sent label.

Ripe with an impassioned topline, “Flowers” is the soundtrack to the struggle of needing to move on from a love that has been uprooted. Luma’s silky vocals saunter over wistful guitar licks and melancholic pads, producing a reflective, heartfelt introduction. The lyrics focus on the inherent power that comes from resisting the urge to reach out to an ex, and the freedom that arises from fighting through the pain. As she finds her footing, the production builds masterfully, creating a sense of strength that supplements the words. The newfound intensity sails into a swinging, fervent drop imbued with an energetic rocktronic edge. The uplifting tones are interspersed with residual pain and waves of hopefulness, painting a picture of a better tomorrow. The melancholic chords and whispered vocal tones provide a touching outro that reinforces the notion that time itself can heal all things.

ARAYA quotes English poet Walter Savage Landor to introduce the single: “Music is God's gift to man, the only art of Heaven given to earth, the only art of earth we take to Heaven.”

Luma explains how the collaboration evolved, saying, “When I wrote ‘Flowers,’ it was a totally different vibe than how it sounds now. ARAYA completely elevated the song and brought the story I had in my head fully to life. For the ones who’ve grown: I hope you love it!”

Based in Denver, ARAYA has emerged out of the melodic space sphere with a signature style that is deeply emotive while also remaining powerfully anthemic. He has worked with a slew of top-notch songwriters and producers, including Monika Santucci, Donna Tella, Bella Renee, Culture Code, and Runn. His collaboration “After All” with the latter two has amassed 2.3 million streams to date, in addition to earning radio support from Illenium, ARMHMR, and JVNA.

New York City’s Luma is an exceptionally talented singer-songwriter. Her distinct vocal prowess has made her a mainstay in the electronic scene, boasting more than 60 million streams across her catalog. She has an impressive list of collaborations alongside marquee names such as Adventure Club, Nurko, MitiS, yetep, Blanke, Codeko, and many more.

“Flowers” illustrates the pain of a wilted romance, while offering the strength to blossom into someone new.
