QUIÑ - MATH

QUIÑ introduces audiences to a whole new genre of music with her most recent project GALACTICA. This rising artist lives in another world that resides within the deepest depths of her mind. She brings out this world through ethereal melodies and atmospheric synths that work symbiotically in her music. She appropriately  titles this genre fantasy soul eluding to its representation of her truest self through journeys of her own imagination. She's worked with G-Easy a number of times including on a song called "Over Again" from her recent album. 

This Video Pick, "Math", is a song she calls the best example of her writing process. Her favorite part of writing is working with words and syllables describing herself as a "Word Nerd".  She started out in her high school choir and on Garage Band as many artists do trying to sound similar to artists like Beyoncé or Brandy but eventually learned to be true to herself which is what helped her create the vision for this album. The idea fully came through visions of island imagery in her mind that she worked hard to bring to life through the concept of sound and music. 

QUIÑ will be the opening performer at The Mint on July 28, 2017 going on at 8pm! Hot Tub Johnnie will be DJing the party that night as well...come experience this phenomenal performer as well as Hot Tub Johnnie's mad DJ skills!

  • MILLY - "Bittersweet Mary"
    MILLY - "Bittersweet Mary" “I think about death all the time.” Almost ironic for someone called Brendan Dyer. Principal songwriter and singer of the indie rock, shoegaze band MILLY, Dyer lays his hushed vocals over a bed of heavy guitar riffs while singing about both love and death. In their freshly released third LP… Read more

  • DREAM THEATER, NIGHT TERROR
    DREAM THEATER, NIGHT TERROR When the video for "Night Terror" was released, I did myself the injustice of reading a ton of related social media posts prior to listening to the track out right. I saw everything from 'Best Song Ever' to 'Total Disappointment' and everything in between. Who would have thought a new… Read more
