YA ARRO HS
Ethereal and otherworldly storytelling
A self-proclaimed “New York native, Los Angeles covert”, Ms
Yaarrohs combines celestial vocals with drawn-out synths and
crashing snares in an intoxicating marriage of otherworldly
storytelling and emotional music. She’s a close associate of The
Glitch Mob, her voice helping to charm the West Coast trio’s
‘Love, Death, Immortality’ to Number One on both Billboard’s
Independent Album and Electronic Album charts, and she’s
just released an excellent six-tracker called ‘Flesh & Blood’ on
the Mob’s Glass Air imprint. Yaarrohs is a witchy siren from the
furtherest reaches of outer space, ready to guide you through
the galaxies.

Hazy downtempo wooziness
WHO THEY?
What are they putting in the water in Nottingham? Whatever it
is, it’s clearly enough for Coventry-born duo Robin Hearn and
Liam Arnold to call it home these days.
WH Y SHE LT E R P OIN T ?
If delicious low-key electronica is your bag, you’re going to have
very happy ears with these guys. Debuting in 2012 with the
‘Forever For Now’ EP, they took their sweet time following it up,
but last year’s reappearance with a brace of tracks – the smooth,
soulful ‘Serenity’ and ‘Cut Me Loose’ – proved more than worth
the wait.

Already onboard the good ship Shelter Point are the likes of
Annie Mac, Huw Stephens and Zane Lowe, as well as Notts
hotshot Indiana, who invited the pair to support her on her
last UK tour. With the ink still drying on a deal with the Space
& Time label and having remixed the likes of Mø and Laura
Doggett, Shelter Point say that further collaborations should be
expected on their debut album. They’re busy working on that as
you read.
