Equal parts innovative and accessible, ïamu is a new name in modern dance music. Born in Colombia and raised in Union City, NJ; ïamu is the diverse and fun-loving musical alter ego of Rafael Peñaloza. A balanced mixture of RnB, Pop, dance music, and cinematic soundscapes, this blended family of composition brings out the nostalgic youth in anyone. Being trained classically from a young age, every track is tailored to send you on an epic journey you can’t forget. Like an audio jack to the soul, ïamu is meant to connect us to each other by creating a space that allows us to unleash our true selves. His debut single “Compromeyes” is a glitchy electro-pop gem that establishes ïamu as a leader at the forefront of emerging electronic talent. Although a new presence, ïamu’s art is far from novice. Likened to the sounds of Jai Wolf, Lido, and Haywyre, this fresh new talent is a name you won’t forget.
