ISOxo Stuns With Furious Single “Aarena” On RL Grime’s Sable Valley Label
After a gangbusters debut on Sable Valley alongside label boss RL Grime, ISOxo is back with another in-your-face banger on the emerging imprint. All things considered, ISOxo’s follow-up, “Aarena,” starts off deceptively peaceful with glistening synths and ethereal vocal swirls.
