Hannah Chia<\/strong><\/a>
\nBorn in Singpore and ooted in classical training yet shaped by Southeast Asian traditions and the pulse of UK club culture, Chia says this about her music: \u201dI wouldn\u2019t really consider myself a singer, so it really surprised me that this track ended up taking such a vocal turn. Most of my music is never really written with an end goal in mind, it\u2019s often a process of letting different ideas come together in building an ecosystem, that then ends up taking on a life of its own.\u201d
