‘We Came From Stars’ is the latest single from Irish art-pop innovator AE MAK. The new track is catchy and powerful, but it starts to move in a direction that may be unfamiliar to her fans. It’s an emotionally direct cut that leans into its stripped-back sound, with moments of minimalism and ethereal beauty resulting in something that feels organic and authentic. “This song is about spirit, embodiment, and the fierce work of remembering who you are when walking in darkness,” she says. “Writing it was a guide for me at the time.” This is the start of a bold new chapter for AE MAK so keep an eye out for more from her in the coming months. -Dan Peeke
