About Me


Every story has a tune. From it, the music of highrise springs to life - capturing moments of joy, sorrow, hope, fear, love and loss that people feel or fantasize about - into a melodic piece of music. highrise songs are also reflections of an ever-evolving society that is moving so fast into a mechanical realm; in which technology gets mightier while the hearts of people get smaller.
We hope our music stirs emotions and makes people realise how to feel again because thats what makes us all humans.
