ARTIST BIO
Now, let’s shine a spotlight on the individual talents that constitute this duo:
Jordana Moon is a singer-songwriter from Western Canada whose music is a harmonic homage to consciousness and empowerment. Her lyrics play like a philosophical soliloquy set to melodious musings from her guitar, mandolin, ukulele, and violin. Jordana studied creative writing at the Vancouver film school. Her inspiration sprouts from a variety of genres and artists ranging from jazz, trip-hop, neo soul, to the likes of Joni Mitchell, Lauryn Hill, BeeGees, Portishead and Massive Attack.
On the other hand, Tom Aries, an electronic synthesizer musician from Western Germany, pours his classical piano education into spellbinding synth sequences. Having already made his mark in the sphere of computer game music and film soundtracks, Aries now directs his creativity towards the duo’s offerings, attributing his inspiration to Depeche Mode, Kraftwerk, ABBA, Portishead and the classic sounds of the 80s.

"What makes this duo stand out to me is the fusion between complete calmness and a ton of energy at the same time. There are also a lot of 80s influences in this that I love. I think the 80s are having a bit of a comeback at the time of writing this, mainly because of the Netflix show Stranger Things, but I think this could work out in favour of Moon and Aries. Listening to Moon and Aries is like a massage for my ears. This is the kind of music that I can listen to all day and just feel like I’m being carried around on pillows.
It’s a treat for the mind and ears at the same time.”

“Evocative, poetic, thought-provoking, and artful – Jordana Moon knows exactly how to work a mysterious melody for all that it’s got to offer, and you’ll hear a sensationally smooth, fluid, and stylistic performance from her vocals, all throughout this new single. As for Tom Aries…well…my hat’s off to this man of music every bit as much folks – the sparkling & shimmering structure & design of “The Arrival” has so much depth to it & serves up a vibrantly complementary pairing with the vocals of Jordana, and vice versa, respectively.”
