It’s a sentiment I’ve usually expressed with many artists, although the sincerity by no means diminishes every time it’s uttered. If something, it solely rings extra true. At Your EDM, we’ve had the pleasure of protecting Saint Punk since his second-ever launch, “Guttah,” again in 2019. Now, two years later, his debut album has arrived: Ouroboros.

The ouroboros is an emblem you’ve seemingly seen in quite a lot of settings, mostly related to historical Egyptian and Greek mythology.

characterize new life for me. That’s how I select to see it now. A endless pressure of momentum, pushing and pulling, grinding in opposition to the grain, to be born into one thing worthy of the hassle. One thing with objective. It’s every little thing I skilled and felt in 2020, from anger to unhappiness to euphoria, despair and extra. It’s mainly a journal put to music.”

Out of 14 songs on the album, solely 4 had been beforehand launched as singles, giving option to an enormous quantity of discovery inside the album itself, together with “Psycho Sicko” with Holy Wars, serving up “Sofi Wants A Ladder” vibes if it was a more durable, bass home quantity; or “Animal” with Whyel, giving blisteringly quick electro-punk vitality.
