DJ, producer and former record shop owner Sky Society welcomes new single and music video for “Holy Time” featuring the hauntingly sensual vocals of Monstercat singer Ehiorobo. “Holy Time” is the first single off of Sky Society’s forthcoming EP Heart Beats: The Love Loops” Vol.2, which will drop in late July via his Higher Frequency Recordings label.
The inspiration for “Holy Time” was conceived by honoring the union of the Divine Masucline & Feminine Energies coming together as one, opening the portal to creativity and guiding the vessel through its daily rituals. Visualized in the ceremonious music video that accompanies the track, a unity of auras is transcribed through the healing sounds and Ehiorobo’s vocal timbres that guide the body’s movement.
Santos’ intention is felt both in the delivery and fine crafting of the song’s production that breathes influences of electronic, R&B, and soulful dub music. The mending of Ehiorobo’s deep vocal samples over the song’s pulsating bass and minimal sounding synths make space for the delicate percussion, creating an ephemeral sonic journey to embody the Santos’ colored mantra — “This sacred union within ourselves & with others gives birth to new life, manifesting the experiences that we seek to encounter,” Sky Society shares on the track.
Sky Society is the vessel guided by DJ/producer Juany Santos. “The concept was channeled back in 2013 when I was building the foundation for something bigger than myself. It was an ode to the power of music, past, present & future,” Santossays. The name Sky Society is an ode to Santos’ zodiac sign, Aquarius, and his natural connection to the cosmos and fascination with what goes on in the vast galaxies above us.
Sky Society has performed at Chicago’s North Coast Music Festival and opened for heavy-hitters including Sugar Hill Gang, RJD2, Star Slinger, Escort, Sweater Beats, Flamingosis, Nosaj Thing and more. From 2016 to 2020, Santos owned and operated his own record shop and small music venue called Moira Lazarus in Lancaster, PA. After four years Santos outgrew the space, and has since focused on launching his own label Higher Frequency Recordings as a platform for himself and others to press quality music on vinyl, passing the torch and preserving the culture.
