Posted by HIRA is a name that tends to flicker in the darkness, illuminating flashes of light that scorch out of the gloom.
The London based artist is an affiliate of the Paul Institute, the free-flowing creative project helmed by Jai and AK Paul.

‘Don’t Question It!’ is loosely an R&B song, albeit one where the processed guitar sounds plunge into the frozen climes of a distant future.
We’ve opted for ‘Just When I’ which re-tools New Jack Swing for a sci-fi dystopia, a highly unconventional take on an often under-rated sound.
