‘Always Us’ Announce ‘Aurum’ Album Release Date & Pre-Save
Save the date in anticipation of the upcoming debut album by Durban-based EDM Pop band Always Us. Devographic Music Agency and Always Us announced today the album is called 'Aurum', and will be released on Friday 24 February. The pre-save is now available on hypeddit.com/alwaysus
Co-Vocalist Tanner Kelly-Stack shares that “The making of ‘Aurum’ was so organic, that it didn’t really feel like we were searching for inspiration or lacking ideas at any point of the process. We are all so different in terms of the creative skills that we bring to the table, but our combined energy is just so productive that it is easy to find that artistic middle ground where we can all agree on a specific sound or vision for a project.”
‘Aurum’ will consist of 8 tracks infused with Funk, House, DnB and Rock influences. The band even has 3 music videos lined up as well. The dynamic 4-piece aims to bring their unique sound and high production value to all platforms, stating that the “fast pace, high energy, raw emotion, fat mix, and tight production equals Aurum!”

What if Cheslin Kolbe listened to the naysayers, and didn't pursue Rugby? He would’ve been discouraged, working in an office cubicle, hearing a voice deep within, as the song plays like his destiny calling. In real life, Kolbe never listened to the naysayers, and is one of the greatest Rugby players of his time. How many people listen to the naysayers, losing out on their potential because they don't try?
Rather than be discouraged by his own disabilities and challenges, Ijay Swanepoel is a shining symbol of hope and inspiration to those who are disabled, different, oppressed, bullied, and everyone in-between. Via his Hip-Hop/Pop project, called Stephen Gawking, he offers inspiration and hope. On 20 January, Stephen Gawking will release a massive motivational collaboration, a power Hip-Hop/Pop track called ‘Cheslin Kolbe In An Office Cubicle’ featuring HemelBesem, Loufi, Gazelle and Vicus Visser. The track can now be pre-saved here linktr.ee/stephengawking
This track is an anthem to motivate and inspire everyone to pursue their dreams, as the old cliché states "rather try and fail, than fail to try". Ijay personally lives by this motto, and has learned so much by doing so (who would’ve thought he would meet and work with such prominent artists)?
Ijay shares that “I feel like Nick Fury bringing together the Avengers for the first time, and like them, I feel that this song will be iconic, especially for the Stephen Gawking brand. I still can't really believe it, it feels surreal. Everyone featuring on this track, and everyone behind the scenes that made this possible, is scattered across SA, and as far as New York. For me, this whole Stephen Gawking project is, and continuously aims to be, the ultimate embodiment of the
Cantrel ‘My Time Has Come’ Featuring Velosity & Jacqueline Tolken
Multi-talented songwriter and internationally known keyboardist Neil Breytenbach is most known for his role in the South African award-winning band Prime Circle as Pianist and Co Songwriter, as well as for playing Solo Piano shows for Royalty. With many Platinum and Gold Albums under his belt, Neil and his son Jesse have been crafting their side music project called Cantrel.
Their new release is called ‘My Time Has Come’, a powerful inspirational Hip Hop infused Pop Anthem featuring Velosity and Jacqueline Tolken. ‘My Time Has Come’ is available now on all platforms as a 2-track EP with a Radio Mix Version and Acoustic Version.
Neil shares that “this song is about finding your new path in life in a positive way and not letting your past define your future. It doesn’t matter what people say about you, as every day you wake up is a new day to make a fresh start in life, so don’t let their negative words and ways get you down. You can make a positive start to your life. Stay Positive & Keep Your Head Up!”
