Beat The Universe

New single

“Have you ever wondered what the universe sounds like? By listening carefully to the sounds of space atoms, we can gain a better understanding of our universe and how it works. From this knowledge we can learn more about our place in it and how to protect it for future generations.
The fight against fate and destiny is a struggle that has been ongoing since the dawn of time. It is a battle between man’s free will and the predetermined path that life has set forth for us. From ancient philosophers to modern-day scientists, many have sought to understand why certain events occur in our lives and how we can take control of our destinies. With advances in technology, it is now possible to explore this question further and gain insight into how we can shape our lives for the better? “

This unique band creates a sound that’s difficult to define, blending elements of rock, afrobeat, dance, pop, indie, and more to create a truly original musical experience.
