Anouna has just released her debut album titled By Myself available now on Spotify and Apple Music. This newly released album delves deep into Anouna’s vulnerable and honest thoughts post-breakup, as she navigates through life by herself.

By Myself is an album that everyone can relate to. Everyone loves, everyone goes through hard times, and Anouna uses the familiarity of these feelings to teach people that they’re not alone, whilst also finding the importance of independence.

By Myself finds the beauty behind the darkness, as Anouna showcases her love for languages with Il M’a Dit, a French tune, and expresses her love for the beach in By the Sea and House of Sand. Anouna’s music reflects her travelling lifestyle, taking influence from the Middle East, North Africa, and the UK (plus she can speak a whopping 7 languages!).

Rxth releases her brand new single Starlight

When speaking about its creation Rxth says: ‘Starlight’ is one of those songs that, lyrically and melodically, arrived almost as a fully formed download. It was exactly what I needed to hear at the time, yet I didn’t feel like it was just for me. It’s a reminder that we’re all a ‘work in progress’ and not only is that ‘okay’, but it is as it should be. Our individual journeys of growth are unique, sacred, and beautiful. Even the hard stuff”.

Regarding production, Rxth shares how the track evolved: “I worked with ED Seed for the production, and he really helped take it to the next level. From its early incarnation as a piano/vocal track, he managed to take the theme of light and put sound to it with those beautiful glassy strings at the beginning and throughout. Then he sonically mirrored the topic of personal evolution with the way the track builds and gathers momentum throughout, we both loved the results”.
