Krystal says: “I love indie-dance and sober raving so when I heard JP’s vocal I melted!  I played S.K.T out a lot in my sets so it was a dream to fuse his sonic sounds to make this electronic riot record!”

Support from BBC Radio 1, Kiss FM UK and over 4 million combined streams see’s Roxx has firmly established herself as an advocate for women in music and one to watch.

What’s your story as an artist? 

I started in theatre and dance, developed as a song writer and vocalist and then DJ producer, the journey has been a constant development of how I express my self in the world through music and how I can use that expression to empower and bring love and light to others

What inspired this single?

The indie rock mantra really spoke to me I wanted to put that into a electronic style that would thump hard on a dance floor

What are some sources of inspiration for your storytelling?

Everywhere I look I am inspired, nature and time spent on the sea brings me back to what’s honestly going on within myself and the world around me.  I care a lot about injustice and the power of coming together as a global family to have fun and help each other.  So there’s no shortage of inspiration!

Any funny anecdotes from the time you were recording or writing the album?

Being in the studio with JP is always funny, even when we’re hitting raw lyrical content we end up bringing back to some dry sense of humour!
