In the vibrant heart of the concrete jungle, she stands as a magnetic force shot from Manhattan like artillery and into the heart of Los Angeles, MIXIE, a bold creative artist who openly and proudly admits to having “LGBTQ+” written on her DNA – metaphorically speaking.
MIXIE is a music lover through and through who always felt that everything else fell just short of fully describing or representing her, so she has embarked on a mission to create works that fill that void, inviting all to dive into the “MIXIEVERSE” – a place where being a rebel has an inherent purpose.
Back in late 2022, MIXIE made her triumphant debut with the release of her self-titled EP, finding a home on prestigious playlists, including Spotify’s New Music Friday playlists globally, as well as features on Fresh Finds, Best Of Fresh Finds Pop 2023, and other tastemaker playlists.
Building on this momentum, in 2023 she launched the innovative MIXIE MONDAYS series, a new single released every first Monday of the month to chase away those dreadful Sunday scaries she says! This culminated in the highly anticipated debut of her “MONDAYS” LP, a 12-track masterpiece that further cemented her status as a rising force in the music landscape. The album’s acclaim reached new heights, with KCRW championing two tracks for radio play and the legendary Elton John featuring the single “four seasons” on his Apple Radio show. Additionally, the captivating track “diamonds” has firmly entrenched itself on Apple Music’s “Relax” playlist.
But it’s 2024 and MIXIE’s not slowing down one bit. This is set to be another landmark year for the MIXIEVERSE. She’s unveiling a new series of quarterly EPs, each accompanied by a captivating visual component, whether it be full-length music videos or innovative visualizers – all of which will be directed by MIXIE herself –. To kick that off, she’s releasing her newest track “la la la love,” a stunning and sultry alt-pop banger with solid yet subtle hip-hop influences that take us through a difficult process of romantic disillusionment and the denial that precedes it.
The visuals for MIXIE’s exhilarating new single “la la la love” are a mesmerizing testament to the duality of the human experience. Directed by the artist herself, the video immerses the viewer in a cinematic exploration of queer romance, while also capturing the intoxicating highs and crushing lows that come with getting involved with someone while ignoring their red flags.
Through a series of captivating slice-of-life shots, the viewer is transported into the intimate moments that define the arc of love. We witness the euphoric glow of new infatuation, the playful banter, and the electric chemistry that ignites between two people. Yet, just as quickly, the video subtly pivots into lone shots of MIXIE, unveiling the emotional withdrawal that follows the shattering of that once-passionate connection.
This enthralling visual accompaniment is just a glimpse into MIXIE’s boundless artistic potential. As MIXIE continues to push the boundaries of her craft, expanding her sonic, visual, and experiential offerings, we eagerly await what she has in store!
