Cozmic Unveils Vibrant New Single “Surface,” with Natasha Slayton

Cozmic’s indie-pop is the millennial soundtrack to Venice Beach, California. His transcendent tunes are informed by the beach’s curious culture clash; a motley mishmash of techies, artists, spirituality seekers, yogis, punkers, skate rats, and surfers.

This is the music that we need now—something the whole world can sing to. Playful and purposeful, Venice Beach, California-based artist Cozmic has cultivated an irresistible and invigorating lifestyle musical platform that reflects the beach’s curious culture clash; a motley mishmash of techies, artists, spirituality seekers, yogis, punkers, skate rats, and surfers. His music embraces pop, electro-pop, indie-pop, R&B, singer-songwriter narrative writing, and urban-pop.  His latest work recalls Two Feet, Khalid, NoMBe, and Dermot Kennedy. This is the millennial soundtrack to a cultural mecca. 

A cinematic fall relationship anthem, catchy banger “Surface” delivers emotional dueting vocals and earworm hooks atop a vibey, ambient and textured indie-pop production. The melodic, mid-tempo track gracefully plays in multiple genres from Indie Pop to Pop RnB. The song’s powerful vocal delivery, lyrics and production would appeal to fans of artists like: Halsey, Demi Lovato, and Lauv. The track was produced by an all-star creative team including Chris Garcia (Lana Del Rey, Demi Lovato, Dua Lipa) and Refugee (Illenium, Xuitecasecity).

It’s a song about that scary feeling of wearing your heart on your sleeve because it’s been broken before. And the support of a partner who wants to work through that fear with you no matter what. It’s about the beauty and power of accepting your partner’s imperfections… and your own, together. 

“I can tell that you’re something different

Beneath your scars is what I’ve been missing

So take your chances on me

I wanna understand your mysteries

So you can let your guard now

Cause I’m here to listen”

Cozmic and Natasha Slayton will perform the song live on November 7th at the first Virtual Yoga Remix, attend for free: https://www.cozmicmusic.com/attend-yoga-remix-2020

Creativity and conscious living imbue all facets of Cozmic’s life. For him, clothing is another outlet for artistic expression, and his couture choices are just as freewheeling as his music. His aesthetic blurs the lines between eras, styles, and gender norms. Cozmic is also alcohol and drug free, vegetarian; he supports and promotes awareness for mental health issues; and he is a disciplined meditator and who shares the fruit of the journey with compassion, through volunteer teaching with non-profits for high school and college students.

AVTR’S TERA BANG DROPS DEBUT SINGLE ‘ALL ABOUT ME’ WITH 3D ANIMATED LYRIC VIDEO

Tera Bang®, a member of avatar girl music group AVTR®, is today releasing her debut single, ‘All About Me,’ along with an animated lyric video in which she models several upcycled outfits in support of the sustainable fashion movement. Tera’s solo track is the first music release from 3D virtual girl band AVTR, an initialism of group members Amaya Rush®, Valentina Verse®, Tera Bang, and Ryda Rhymes®.

In ‘All About Me,’ Tera makes her debut to the dance-pop canon with a carpe diem attitude inspired by Ferris Bueler’s Day Off. The song’s uptempo brings the energy of the dancefloor to the housebound listening experience of the “new normal” with smooth, candy pop melody and classic pop beat. The cut represents a positive and confident way of looking at life as a free spirit and motivating yourself to get out there to accomplish what you want.


The song’s lyrics describe a hardworking young woman by opening with ‘calling in sick in the morning, cos tonight I want to play’ then ‘every day and night I know how to put the work in so today I’ll make it rain.’ It then moves onto a chorus ‘it’s all about me’ and we gain a sense of female empowerment with ‘just relax, be cool and act like you’re the one who makes the rules.’ The production is upbeat and infectious with attention-grabbing vocals and a punchy bassline mixed with guitar vibes, creating the perfect ‘Girls Night Out’ anthem for any occasion.

The lyric video shows Tera modeling in a photographer’s warehouse studio with lyrics painted on the brick wall in a trendy, graffiti style. Tera wears three different outfits designed and sold by upcycled fashion company tHERAPY Recycle and Exorcise. Since Tera’s appearance with the other AVTR group members at Helsinki Fashion Week 2020, Tera is taking up the cause of sustainable fashion.

Although Tera Bang is a virtual music artist, the people who stand behind her brand aspire to impact our interconnected world through championing ethical, eco-sensible brands and community leaders.  

Panjandrum.ai Inc develops virtual music artists, with its first project being the avatar girl music group AVTR. All four members of AVTR will release their group song, ‘Queen,’ with a full 3D music video later this fall.
