Widely acclaimed Austin (TX)- based producer Qrion (real name Momiji Tsukada) has shared a new taster from her recently announced second album, ‘We Are Always Under The Same Sky’. The album will be released on January 17th, 2025 via Anjunadeep. ‘Keep On Moving Up,’ is a powerful, raw house track infused with poignant lyrics reflecting her sobriety journey. The accompanying artwork reflects the hills of San Francisco and Sapporo, where Momi (Qrion) is reaching for a star at the top. This is a nod to the determination and joy of progression. It resembles the star-collecting journey in Super Mario 64. Each star is a step toward the ultimate goal, representing resilience and the pursuit of something greater. By openly addressing her struggles with addiction and recovery after her father’s passing, Qrion imbues the theme of rebirth in ‘We Are Always Under The Same Sky’. It is accompanied with a profound sense of poignancy and resilience. The album follows the release of her 2021 debut album, ‘I Hope It Lasts Forever’. It was hailed by Forbes as “stunning” and “a masterful production.” This new record signifies a rebirth for Qrion, representing the next phase of her journey following her debut, which was written as a reflection of the past. It is about hitting rock bottom and challenging myself to conquer small goals, gradually working my way up to larger ones. The lyric ‘Don’t Know Where I’m Going’ reflects the uncertainty of my first year of sobriety after rehab, capturing the struggle and growth of finding my path forward. Qrion Qrion also unveiled her single ‘Hush My Heart’ featuring South-East London rising star Josie Man alongside this recent development. It is anchored by energetic beats and could be termed as a melodic house earworm. It blends the producer’s trademark emotive piano chords with arpeggio melodies and Josie Man’s soft vocals. The song has garnered support from BBC Radio 1 across Sian Eleri’s Chillest Show and Danny Howard’s Dance Party Warm-Up. It also has spins from KCRW and SXM Chill in the US.Qrion Releases New Single ‘Keep on Moving Up’
