“HiYA captures the nostalgia of sending a voice memo to your best friend, bringing back those heartfelt moments that define true friendship,” says Ray Lozano.

Following an impressive kick-off with DRAGON, Ray Lozano ups the game for 2024 with her latest release, HiYA, offering fans another fresh glimpse into her evolving sound. “HiYA is a warm, reflective track that feels like a love letter to the simple but meaningful connections that shape our lives over time.” 
 
2023 was a remarkable year for the German-Filipino singer and producer from Cologne. With her debut album Pairing Mode, Ray and her co-producer Samon Kawamura created a landmark in German-Asian culture, accumulating over 42 million streams and receiving widespread acclaim, with praise from Jamz Supernova, WDR Cosmo, and Spiegel Online. Ray’s artistry was further recognized with the prestigious Holger Czukay Award and NICA artist residency, while she captivated audiences with performances throughout Germany. On Dec 6th, Pairing Mode will finally be released on LP.
 
Her forthcoming EP SILKS&SORROW (Spring 2025) is poised to elevate her eclectic lo-fi future soul to the next level: uncompromising, playful, and empowering.
