SEAKER stirs a symphony of despair with “Strange Old Thing”
“Strange Old Thing,” the latest single written and produced by SEAKER, the North London-based DIY independent artist also known as Kiran Hungin, and masterfully mixed by Rick David, invites listeners into a profoundly personal adventure through the labyrinth of loss and recovery. Her signature muted piano and ethereal vocal harmonies are complemented by a haunting slide guitar, creating an intimate and expansive soundscape.
“Strange Old Thing,” SEAKER’s second release this year following ‘Grown,’ is a testament to her prowess as a DIY independent artist. It captures the essence of navigating the delicate balance between love and a poignant reflection on the bewildering pain of losing someone significant. The eventual lessons learned from such heartache resonate with an enchanting beauty that lingers long after the final note fades.
The track builds gradually, a percussive crescendo that mirrors the emotional journey from sorrow to empowerment. SEAKER masterfully conveys that even in the depths of despair, there is a glimmer of hope and a lesson waiting to be discovered. Her ability to transform personal pain into a universally relatable experience makes “Strange Old Thing” a standout.
For anyone who has ever grappled with loss, this song offers a comforting embrace and a reminder that healing is possible. “Strange Old Thing” is a sonic emotional catharsis, an absolute must-listen for those seeking solace in music. SEAKER’s evocative storytelling and introspective melodies ensure this track earns its place in your playlist.

Album Review
Paul Terry, Aptøsrs & Cellarscape unite on bold new album “Alternative Piano Club”
Combining his three artistic alter egos, Paul Terry presents an awe-inspiring new 12-track album, “Alternative Piano Club,” written in collaboration with Aptøsrs and Cellarscape. This is an album-length voyage of music that blends acoustic, rock, and piano-driven cinematic sounds.
Torn between this complex emotional spectrum, all the while the piano remains at its core throughout. Paul Terry opens his “Memento Mori (Chromogenic Phase)” contemplatively, creating a solemn, reflective mood. Cellarscape’s “Three Years Of Roses“ is warmer, whereas Aptøsrs’ “Questionnaires“ is much more textured as a large, sculptural post-rock.
“Dave’s Theme,” written by Paul Terry, musically expands the narrative with a touch of cinematic elevation that aligns well. “We Shape The Clouds” by Cellarscape is fluffy and heart-warming, “Writers Behind The Curtain” is somber, more narrative. We are all together in “A Place We Made,” an honest, intimate, emotionally grounded space.
The project contains vocal warmth and cultural depth in the song “This Is My Home“ by Silas Miami & Lana Crowster. Proceeding in a totally different direction is the stronger emotional clarity of Paul Terry’s acoustic storytelling on “Any Time You Want To Fly” and “No Sleep Has Come.” Cellarscape presents a wide, spacious atmospheric moment in “Cygnus,” while Aptøsrs ends with “Rust Mountain (Monochrome Piano Version),” a simple gem that brings the project full circle.
The mixing of Sam Okell and Adam Noble, the mastering of Alex Wharton and Robin Schmidt have, in many ways, brought their polish to it while still making it feel human. “Alternative Piano Club” is a work entity, where three musical personalities met and talk mind in the same emotional language.
