Portguese Beatsmith Holly and LA-based Singer/Songwriter jasper Drop Genre Blurring “Another Earth” Single on STNS
Miguel Oliveira, known professionally as HOLLY, is a genre-defying producer and DJ who has become a formidable presence in both the electronic and hip-hop music scenes. Recognized early on by DJ Mag and Run The Trap as one of 2017’s top producers, he went on to win the inaugural A-Trak Goldie Awards Beat Battle and contribute to Baauer’s Grammy-nominated album Planet’s Mad. His innovative sound—described by Billboard Dance as “tough, but sophisticated and often experimental”—has led him to perform at major festivals like Coachella, NOS Alive, and Shambhala, and receive international praise from outlets like BBC, Complex, and Mixmag. In 2021, he was awarded a national medal of honor for his role in elevating Portuguese culture globally.
HOLLY’s collaborations span a wide range of artists, including CL, Danny Brown, Zeds Dead, Machinedrum, and The Bloody Beetroots. Beyond music, he’s ventured into NFT projects with Gucci and Alex Trouchet, and crafted multimedia experiences for Cirque du Soleil and Blue Man Group. In 2023, he released two parts of his EP trilogy Minha Vida and a joint EP with Machinedrum, while signing his first publishing deal with 88Rising. Named an Artist to Watch 2024 by Dancing Astronaut, HOLLY continues to push sonic boundaries with upcoming releases on Sable Valley and Monta Records, solidifying his status as a forward-thinking force in global music.
Forward-thinking producer HOLLY and rising singer-songwriter jasper join forces on their striking new single, “Another Earth,” releasing via STNS. This poignant and transportive track weaves together the sonic DNA of electronica, ambient, and experimental pop into a breathtaking tapestry of sound. At its emotional core lies a tale of star-crossed love and longing, with jasper’s breathy vocal delivery and rapid cadence creating a mesmerizing tension between vulnerability and urgency. Her aching refrain, tinged with melancholy, speaks to the universal desire to flee from reality and find solace in a parallel world.
HOLLY’s production elevates this narrative with cinematic precision—layering ethereal handpan melodies, propulsive breakbeat rhythms, haunting vocal chops, and rich sub-bass that rumbles beneath the track like distant thunder. The result is a soundscape that feels both intimate and vast, grounding the listener while simultaneously pulling them toward the cosmic unknown. “Another Earth” is more than a song; it’s a vivid emotional escape, a sonic exploration of heartbreak, hope, and the imagined places we go when reality no longer feels like home.
