Psychedelic soundscapes reverberate through most of Remar’s tracks, and her songs are laced with melancholy, sentimentality, and emotional vulnerability. Her debut EP Still Good was a sensation across the music landscape, getting high praise from publications like Billboard, MTV, Rolling Stones, and Wonderland. It also reached outstanding stream numbers on Spotify, Youtube Music, Apple Music, and many more. She was even invited to join Justin Nozuka on his NA tour. In the months following Remar’s debut, Japanese management company LAND INC – known for representing Sekai no Owari, signed Remar and re-released Still Good exclusively for Japanese fans. The album featured a bonus track, “Holy Nights”, as well as visuals by Aerin Moreno.
Let’s not dwell on the past anymore. Lisa Remar delights audiences with her latest EP “hi…“. “Woke Up Early” is the main attraction, coming in two variants, instrumental or accompanied with Lisa‘s vocals. As a result of her grasp of the psychedelia along with a bit of trap and electronic mish-mash, she creates a very unique experience. It could be described as a “genre-bending wonder” and it’s an “ode to the modern music landscape”.
Stylish and experimental, “hi…” is an innovative work of art that showcases Lisa‘s creativity and skill and is a testament to her ability to create something truly special. Her skilful blending of various styles, combined with her innovative approach, makes her music an unparalleled experience, pushing the boundaries of music and making her a pioneer in the modern music industry. Lisa‘s music is highly experimental, combining elements of different genres and creating something completely unique. She uses her mastery of various styles to create her own sound, one that is distinct and different from anything else. Her approach to music is bold and daring, constantly pushing the boundaries of what is possible and exploring new and uncharted territory.
“It is a hyper-pop-driven r&b song about feeling ready to love and be loved again after self-reflection in isolation. The music sounds nostalgic and reminiscent of Mgmt, Ratat, and other artists from the New Age NYC era paired with a 90s vocal resembling the softness of Mariah Carey’s falsetto with the power of Alicia Keys’s voice. This is a song that I’d like to blast in my headphones and sing, tune out the world, and dance to!” – Lisa Remar
“hi…” has been played on both J WAVE and Inter FM, both highly respected Japanese stations. The EP has earned positive feedback from listeners, solidifying Lisa‘s status as a rising star in the music industry. She is excited to share her music with the world and make her mark on the industry. Follow her on Instagram for some wacky stuff and keep a close eye on her future work.
