Making a graceful debut on ODESZA’s Foreign Family Collective, NASAYA and MARO team up for their single “Tempo.” A producer defined by his dexterity as a multi-instrumentalist, NASAYA blends elements of indie-dance with jazz, soul, pop, and even rock. Born and raised in the eclectic French island of Reunion, NASAYA’s music moves with the simple breeze of the coastline. Enlisting the help of his former classmate at Berklee College Music MARO, the twosome craft vibrant musical worlds that cross cultural boundaries with universal sentiments. MARO, who recently signed to Quincy Jones’ management roster, is a multi-hyphenate musician who brings her thoughtful songwriting and voice to the forefront of “Tempo.” Summery and approachable to boot, this Foreign Family cut is unmistakably bold. Guided by shimmering electronic melodies, mesmerizing vocal chords, and deep rhythm patterns, “Tempo” is not one to miss.
