Pihka Is My Name X Ian Gx

Brighton-based vocalist lan GX and Berlin-based Finnish electro duo Pihka Is My Name return this July with a powerful new Double A-Side release, In A Breath and Spiritual, arriving alongside their debut UK tour and marking the next chapter in one of Europe’s most exciting emerging alt-electronic collaborations. Following the atmospheric debut single Too Much Noise, the project shifts into brighter territory with two euphoric crossover electronic-pop anthems designed for festival stages, dancefloors and late-night drives. Blending cinematic synths, emotional songwriting and infectious hooks, the release draws inspiration from Empire of the Sun, The Human League, CHVRCHES and M83 while forging a distinct identity of its own.
