Meet 26-year-old sisters from Ukraine Anna and Sonya Kuprienko, known as the Bloom Twins. They are the future of the electronic scene having taken over the world of dark-pop.

Since starting their musical journey at a young age, the twins have become singersongwriters that are classically trained multi-instrumentalists proficient in piano, flute, harmonica, drums, guitar and production. The Bloom Twins made their mark on the music industry after releasing popular tracks like “Love Me Right Now,” “Fahrenheit',” and “Blue,” all while touring throughout the U.K. and Europe.

Now they’re making hit after hit with recent singles “Daydream,” featuring Benny Benassi, “High On Beat,” featuring Jan Blomqvist and their forthcoming remix with Sofi Tukker.

With their usual pop-electro sounds and their angel voices, listening to their music is like a journey into their minds.

Not only are the twins pioneers in the electronic music space, they also have a strong fashion ingenuity. The twins have performed and attend several Fashion Weeks across the globe. Their punk-rock style doesn’t go unnoticed, having them sit front-row at a multitude of shows like Burberry, Self-Portrait, Lanvin, Armani, Tommy Hilfiger and more.

With everything the twins have coming out this year, which include collaborations with prominent top artists and producers, the Bloom Twins are definitely a new talent to watch.

ANNA When and how did you start your music careers We were always into music, and come from a very musical family, who have been nothing but supportive as we’ve worked towards our dream.

We started to sing before we could talk, and knew from an early age that we wanted to pursue music in some way, shape or form - so at the tender age of six our parents sent us off to music school. Our daily schedule was extremely rigorous: school, classical music classes, homework and finally sleep. There was little time for anything else, and while our friends were busy playing with dolls, our attention was fully taken up with the piano, vocal lessons and flute.

Originally, Sonya thought she wanted to pursue an operatic path and I wanted to study mathematics at university, even though music was my true passion. But it all changed when we met one of our managers at a casting session for what we thought was a music video in Ukraine. She saw something in us that I think even we didn’t know was there at that point, and persuaded us to move to the UK to focus on developing our writing skills in a contemporary music space. Our parents gave us three months to figure it out - which wasn’t easy at first as we didn’t know anyone, didn't speak a word of English and had never lived on our own - but eight years later, we’re proud to say we’re still here and definitely thriving!

London suits us…

Where did you grow up? How did your upbringing influence your music.

We grew up in our motherland - Ukraine - in a little town called Brovary, close to Kiev. Being proud Ukrainians definitely influenced (and continues to influence) both our work ethic and our music. I feel like even when we write songs with different writers from around the world, our vocal melodies still sounds quite Slavic.

Where do you find your inspiration for the music?

Inspiration is all around us. We find it in the artists we adore, from our friends and their experiences, and from the gorgeous countries and cities we get a chance to go to. We don’t need much to get inspired.

For me it’s enough to simply sit down at my computer and start creating. I’m inspired by the process itself. ’High On Beat’ is your newest single, what inspired it? How did this collaboration come about?

'High on Beat' was originally written over an instrumental that Guy Gerber had sent us about six years ago. We fell in love with the track instantaneously, but somehow it never ended up being totally finished at a time, so during the pandemic we got in touch with Jan Blomqvist, and we straight away knew what to do! This track was the perfect vehicle for a collaboration with him. It’s electronic and moody. We’re so proud of what we did. Working with two iconic artists like Jan Blomqvist and Guy Gerber was such an honour.

What would be your dream collaboration?

I would love to collaborate with Thom Yorke. His creations have been my favourites since I was 12, and my excitement has only grown stronger since. I also love Massive Attack, Billie Eilish, Tyler, The Creator, Blood Orange, and Channel Tres. I would totally love to work with any and all of them.

SONYA As an artist, is it difficult to find your footing in the industry?

After many years of work it gets harder to differentiate determination from maybe just being delusional. It gets tricky to write the songs you actually like and not the songs you think you should sound like. Business is of course an inevitable part of the music industry, so it’s sometimes hard to just go with the feeling and trust your instincts - but we try.

During the low times I just remind myself why I do it, knowing that it’s not for the fame but for the unique feeling of belonging to something that’s so much greater than celebrity and status. Not everyone has a chance to find themselves in this way and do what they love. We are two of the lucky ones that did, even if sometimes we feel we’re getting lost in the grind.

What is the biggest struggle you faced in the industry so far? How did you overcome it?

The biggest struggle is having patience or in my case not having it at all. I get so caught up in the game, that sometimes the best thing to do is to just sit and watch how that game will unfold. I really believe that what’s meant to be will be, and sometimes you should just let go and stop trying to control the outcome.

The other issue that I sometimes struggle with is staying true to myself and not losing my identity amidst the pressure to succeed. Different days different ways, but I don’t want this game to change my name.

On the opposite, what has been the highlight of your career so far? What do you both hope to accomplish in the future?

We are just so lucky to have shared some of the biggest stages around the globe with Duran Duran, Seal, CHIC, and LP.

We also had the honour of taking part in UNICEF’s #imagine campaign alongside Katy Perry, Will.I.am, and Yoko Ono. That not only felt like a dream come true, to be surrounded by these absolute heavyweights of the music industry, but also we were able to help raise awareness of the rights of every child. We aren’t all equally fortunate and it’s important that we use our platforms, whether small or big, to raise awareness of the important issues. We always say it doesn’t matter how many followers you have to be an influencer, you are an influential person when you raise awareness of what actually matters.

When are you the happiest?

That’s a tough one. Sometimes I’m at my happiest when I’m actually at my lowest, and I’m sad at the happiest moments. Being an artist I think means you have to feel everything, because we get to re-live it all through our songs, over and over again. How you go from a sad, heartbreaking song to an uplifting anthem of happiness is fascinating, but makes complete sense to me because life is a chromatic destination, from white to black, from sad to mad, from love to hate, from the start till the end.

Can we expect an EP or an album soon? What are your future plans for music? Any touring plans?

We've got a lot blooming on our plate, but although I can’t give out the mains yet, for starters there will be lots of collaborations coming your way with some of our absolute musical heroes. We can’t wait for you to hear the products of our lockdown. The restrictions were always lifted in our mind because of the dreams we couldn’t leave behind.

Robbi Jan

The beautiful Youtube Beauty Creator Robbi Jan is our icon for our beauty column. She tells us all her beauty secrets.

How did you fall in love with makeup ?

One of my first memories is watching my grandma do her makeup in the morning when I would visit her as a child. From a young age I've always loved playing around with makeup, but as I've gotten older I think I've really started to like a natural makeup look more than anything. I love trying new lip tints, eyeshadows and mascaras to enhance my natural beauty. I think lip colors are my favorite thing to experiment with though, there is nothing like finding the perfect nude or pink lip. ° What is your beauty philosophy ?

I think the phrase "beauty is in the eye of the beholder" is truly a great phrase to sum up my beauty philosophy. All of us are beautiful in our own way, shape and form, and beauty really is so subjective. Social Media makes it so easy to compare ourselves to others, but it truly is a highlight reel and we have to remind ourselves that it's not always real. Comparison truly is the thief of joy. Many people think the beauty standard is only what we see in the media but I don't think that is the case at all, I think everyone is beautiful. ° What is your favorite makeup item of the moment ?

I've really been loving the @pixibeauty liquid lipsticks lately, they stay on so well and they're so pigmented. It's hard to find a liquid lipstick that stays on for the whole day but this one really does the trick, and it doesn't make my lips super dry like other liquid lipsticks. I also love Charlotte Tilbury products, their look of love eyeshadow palette + lipstick are both beautiful and have been go-to's in my makeup routine as well. ° Your favorite makeup look?

I love a good glowy, dewy base with a small winged liner, pink or nude lip and lots of mascara.

I don't typically like wearing a ton of makeup so something more natural is usually my vibe. If I want to go a little more glam, occasionally I'll add a little more highlighter and some false lashes to the ends of my lashes. ° Your favorite product of all-time My favorite product of all time is probably the foundation that I use on a daily basis, which is the foundcealer from Tarte. It has such good coverage and really blends into the skin, and I keep going back to it. ° What is your skincare routine?

I've always known the importance of skincare, but over the past 5 years I have recently become religious about incorporating it into my daily routine. SPF is something that I believe is incredibly important, even on days you don't leave the house. Understanding what type of skin you have and then using the correct products for your skin type is also important. For me, facial cleanser, moisturizer/serums and retinol to reduce fine lines and wrinkles. I also have a glow, moisture mask that I use every time I travel and I'm obsessed with it, it's from Kora.

16

° Something you always have in your bag?

I almost always carry a good lip gloss or lip tint because I think it's the perfect little touch to add to any look. I also typically carry concealer or mascara for touch ups, since I take photos often while on the go and sometimes just need that extra little pick me up. ° Who are your beauty inspirations?

I have absolutely loved Desi Perkins for years, she is a huge inspiration for me. I also love Makeup by Mario, he does the Kardashian's makeup and I think his techniques are highly admirable. I get a lot of inspiration from the women around me as well, all of the fellow content creators that recommend amazing products every time. ° The best makeup/ Skincare advice you ever received ?

I think treating your skin nicely is important, and that includes using sunscreen and washing your face morning and night to get rid of makeup and any dirt buildup. I always make sure to not leave my makeup on overnight, because it's just so bad for your skin. My mum once gave me the advice that I should always moisturise my neck and decolletage when I moisturise my face, because they're areas that give away your age!

° This year has been stressful and challenging. How do you relax?

Self-care is super important, and I think taking a brain break and watching a chick flick or happy movie is an essential way to relax at least one day during the week. I also read a devotional book every morning, and it's one of my favorite moments of the day because it really allows me to reflect, pray and take time and for myself. ° How do you see the evolution of your YouTube channel ?

I just recently started a new series on my channel called "The Miracle Mindset", to explore health, wellness and have conversations about real life things. The nitty gritty. I have an incredible community on youtube, so for me it’s a natural progression to focus on creating more long form content for my channel. I post health, wellness and personal development content, as well as fun vlogs along the way! Mainly, My channel is a mix of lifestyle and health, with a focus on the idea of positivity and how a positive mindset can completely change your life. My hope for my channel is that my subscribers leave feeling encouraged and empowered after watching my videos. ° Any last advice to share with us ?

Someone once told me "If you control your thinking, you control your life", and that's always stuck with me. There is SO much power in our thoughts, and when we learn to identify the story we are telling ourselves- (the little voice in our head that either propels us forwards, or holds us back) then we can learn to control our inner dialogue, and our thoughts. We ALL have traumas and fears, and we all make mistakes, so when we learn to control our attitudes surrounding those narratives, then that’s when we can turn our mess into our message.

Emma Norton Words: Lyna Allet Photographer : Munteha Pac @munopia Hair & Make-up : Kathy Tengono @beautybykatt Styling: Gulin Cetin @coffeecupsandroses

I am going to admit, I was a bit intimidated to meet Emma. The seventeen year-old TikTok star with more than 8 million followers on TikTok and 423,000 followers on Instagram has the resume to make me a bit nervous. But the minute she entered the Zoom call in a baggy t-shirt, no makeup, and with a giant smile on her face, I was put at ease.

--The first thing to know is that Emma wasn’t destined to be a TikTok sensation. During the summer before COVID-19, her friends encouraged her to try the app but she refused. ‘All my friends were like: ‘Do TikTok, do TikTok !’ I have always been musical and so they thought I’d be good at it but I was like ‘You guys, no way, this is going to be ridiculous.’ But ultimately, she decided to install the app.

Emma is also an actress so she hoped that joining the platform would increase her social media presence and give her an advantage in securing acting roles.

‘I had this really important audition that happened and I didn’t get it. It was between me and one other girl, and the reason why I didn’t get it was because I didn’t have a social media following at the time. And I was like, okay, game on. So I started becoming active on social media.’

The bet she took with herself was quite a good decision. As one of the most-followed people on the platform, she just can’t believe her luck because her first million followers were not something she expected at all. ‘I think I cried and I screamed. It was either the best day ever or the worst day ever based on the description I’m giving you right now, but I promise you it was the best day.’ she says, with a lot of emotion in her voice and a huge smile on her face. ‘It was incredible, It’s the type of thing that I will never quite be able to wrap my head around. I’m so blessed to have the platform that I do. It’s amazing.’

19

Emma is successful on the app because she knows how to be creative. Her colorful makeup and other content is some of the most popular on TikTok. But the rise to fame comes with a dark side. Bullying can be tough and handling it can never be easy.

‘I think everyone deals with bullying. I don’t think that’s something that makes me special.

Everyone experiences that, especially when you have a large platform, because there are a lot more eyes on you. Sometimes the criticism comes simply from the fact that the eyes are on you and people don’t like that. I faced so much criticism, from really early on because I started to gain followers pretty fast. But it never really bothered me. I feel bad for the people who are taking time out of their day to be negative, honestly.’

But Emma faces the haters with grace and indifference. She knows she has support from her friends, family, and loyal supporters, so having a few haters online is not going to ruin her life. So how does she face haters? : ‘ It’s understandably overwhelming for a lot of people but I’ve never been upset about it, not once. And I think that the reason why I have been able to move forward from it is that I know my heart, I know who I am, I know that I have friends and family who love me. As long as I did nothing to offend or to hurt anyone else, and I’m happy as I am, they can keep hating on because it helps the videos do better anyway, so let them hate.’

And it’s with a mindset like this that has helped Emma become a role model for the younger generation. With more than seven million followers on TikTok, she has a voice, and she wants to use it.

'I think that it’s always been important to me on my TikTok, on social media, and in everyday life to voice my opinion about what’s important and to be able to bring awareness to things I believe in. It has to do with speaking up and spreading what’s important right now. As much as I love making silly videos, there are other things in the world that are happening beyond my videos that I want to focus on. As simple as it sounds, encouraging people to live every day to the absolute fullest and be 110% themselves. In this world there are a lot of people who don’t want you to do that so if I can be an encouragement to anyone feeling that way, it means everything to me.'

Speaking up and using her voice is so important to Emma. The young star is looking up to women with with strong voices who are not afraid to speak their minds, which is important in our society when women can easily be silenced by the patriarchy. So who does she look up to? :’Well I look, up to so many people, I’m also 5’2 so physically I look up to a lot of people!' she says with a smile.

'I think my biggest female role models are definitely Rihanna and I love Lady Gaga as well just because I think that both of these women are never afraid to voice their opinion no matter what the subject is. Their opinions are always well-formed and they are taking their time to be eloquent, kind, and such badass wonderful women. Not only do they have successful careers, but they have also created entire empires for products, makeup, helping people, and being accepting of all types of people. I stand by all those things more than anything in the world.’ she confesses in a more serious tone.

20

21

She is currently using her voice in her work with several charities and organizations that champion causes uimportant to her. One of these is Lollipop Theater, a non-profit that brings entertainment and fun programs to hospitalized children who are battling chronic or life-threatening illnesses.

When it comes to her acting, Emma is ready to take over Hollywood. Her first role was in a short film called ‘Cattle Call’ that helped her fall more in love with the industry. She is currently taking classes at L.A.’s Zak Barnett Studios as she works toward her dream of acting in more TV and film projects.

But we all know that, with the uncertainty of COVID-19, doing auditions wasn’t easy at all: ‘I think it has been hard, we are all doing online submissions now with our auditions. But things are starting to open up again, and there’s definitely been so much more opportunity overall so I’m just waiting for the right role to come along.

Emma is still in high school, but like every student, she is already thinking about college.

But with her TikTok and acting career, she is still deciding about college. ‘I’m not sure if I’m going to go to college. I mean that’s definitely something that I think about, however, I'm not sure at this point. I feel very grateful to have both my team and my family to support me and help me make the right decision for myself.’

As she continues to build her following and brand, Emma is working on some exciting new projects for the future: ‘There’s definitely things in the works, I’m working on my own merch right now. It is so exciting! I love a lot of things and now designing is one of them. I’m working on a bunch of things with friends as well, and hopefully down the road there will be some opportunities for acting, so I will have an updated answer on that!’

With a voice that is meant to be heard, combined with her fearlessness, and confidence, Emma is about to take the industry by storm. The teenager is not afraid of anything, and she is ready to take on the world. After the interview, I am happy that I had the opportunity to get to know Emma better because, I admit, I wasn’t expecting to have such a great time. I can’t wait to see where she is headed but one thing is for sure, she has a bright future ahead!

Jenna Doe Words : Lyna Allet Photographer: Becca Hamel

28

You might want to take a look at Jenna Doe, your future favorite musician. She started by giving us a glimpse of her talents in her viral TikTok videos. But now, with her new single 'Pink Slips', Jenna is ready to show us what she is capable of.

--I was scrolling through TikTok when I came across the profile of Jenna. The young musician did her own version of the song ‘The Way I Loved You' by Taylor Swift. But gay. And I was hooked.

Jenna is from a small city outside Toronto named Oshawa, and music was always in her life: ‘My mom literally told me that I could sing before I could talk!’ And since then, after spending her childhood writing songs about toys and performing in local gigs, and competitions, she found her calling.

‘In High School, that’s when I decided I wanted to seriously write songs, as a career. So in ninth grade, I started doing actual gigs around Toronto, in bars and bigger venues.’

She released first song when she was nineteen, and her writing process is a reflection of her artistry: independent and dreamy: ‘I’m usually alone in my room. I feel weird writing anywhere else because I need my own space, in my own head. I pick up my guitar and I start playing chords that I think sound nice. I usually start with a concept I want to write about.’

She talked about one of her first songs named ‘Bedbugs’. 'I actually personally feel like ‘Bedbugs’ is one of my favorite songs that I have ever written. Just because of the fact that it’s one of the only slow songs I’ve written and I have such an emotional attachment to it.’

Like some of her inspirations: Phoebe Bridgers, Taylor Swift, and Conan Gray, Jenna is a storyteller.

And to tell a story, you need to be immersed. This is why she is in touch with her feelings and knows how to exploit them with her music:

‘When I’m hurt I’m never like ‘Oh this sucks I want to get over it so fast and just be happy.’ For me, it’s more like ‘Wow, I’m really wallowing in this emotion and it’s really helpful for my music. So I didn’t even really mind getting heartbroken. This feels like a lot, but not in a bad way, In a way that I am glad I’m feeling. I wrote it last summer after a summer fling I had. A girl in my town was interesting. Everyone was boring and she was kind of crazy. ‘Pink Slips’ is also loosely based on her. And I was like intrigued by this person. I was sad but kinda enjoying the sadness.’

For her brand new song ‘Pink Slips’ that she co-wrote with her friend Alexander Gallimore, she had the concept before the melody: ‘I used to see someone who was objectively perfect but it became boring.

Then I developed a crush on someone who was completely opposite and it was a lot more intriguing.’

29

With this openly sapphic song, Jenna is up to be a good queer representation in music.

Growing up in an accepting family, she never had a big coming-out moment. But she admits she had her first crush on a girl when she was fourteen. Even if she doesn’t label herself. She doesn’t care about gender.

‘What started the success of my song was the fact that it was queer. Because if it were straight, I think that I wouldn’t have grown so much attention. It’s catchy for that kind of niche audience of women who like women. So in the end, maybe I was different from the kids in my high school.

But I wouldn’t have traded these experiences for anything because that’s what’s driving my success. Originality is the most important thing in a person.’

And when asked if she wants to be a sapphic representation in music, she doesn’t hesitate.

‘I want to be. I always thought that there wasn’t enough. There’s a handful of sapphic women that I listen to, but there’s not nearly enough. It’s like you turn on the radio, it’s like so many heterosexual songs and at this point, I’m a little bit sick of how oversaturated the heteronormativity is in media. I want to be an artist that other girls who like girls are like ‘You need to listen to this artist’ ‘you need to listen to this song that’s about a sapphic experience.’

30

And she’s right. The music industry is filled with heteronormativity. But the more we move forward, the more openly LGBTQ+ artists are topping the charts: Hayley Kiyoko, girl in red, Lil Nas X, Kim Petras… and we can only hope to see a bright future for queer artists.

Since her first song Weeping Willow, Jenna grew as an artist. From her ‘DIY’ record, when she made the entire song in a friend’s basement and the fear of release because no one knew who she was, she evolved. 'I’ve learned a lot since releasing my first song. I’ve learned about promoting my music, finding individuals that listen to the same music as me. It’s fun to start at the absolute bottom, with the cheapest guitar and cheapest mic and paying no money for production.’

But now, with ‘Pink Slips’ at almost 50k streams, and her profile trending on TikTok, we are ready to see her and to listen to her. And for those who are already hooked (me included), and are desperate for some more music, no worries. It’s coming. Because of COVID cases in New York, the borders are closed again. She was supposed to record there, but don’t panic. She said that she’s been writing nonstop. She has some tracks in mind and she assured me that in the next few months, we will hear her brand new songs. We are ready.

Meredith Bull Words : Lyna Allet Photographer: Alexandra Hryshyn

32

Meredith Bull is a one-of-a-kind singer, music producer and content creator. With more than 1.3 million followers on TikTok, Meredith turns viral sounds tinto hit songs for her community. With her bright hair and humorous personality, her songs are catchy and joyful - and we cannot get enough. Besides her viral TikToks, she has also released a collection of originals songs, With such a beautiful voice and an inimitable style, she's about to be the new sensation of music.

How did you get started in music?

I started performing in musical theater when I was four years old. As I got older, I started writing my own music during my voice lessons – my teacher really encouraged me to write my own stuff. I’ve done a lot of work in voiceover animation and musical animation, and in between jobs I’d be writing and recording music with my friends. But two years ago I got really serious about making music my sole focus and went to school for music production, which I graduated from last summer.

How did you get started on TikTok? I downloaded the app in 2019, but I didn’t start posting musical content until last November. I was just procrastinating honestly I had some work I was putting off and I thought I’d make some TikToks. I was making all sorts of content back then: impressions, life hacks, comedy… Finally the thing that really blew up for me was making songs, showing the production side of the songs, and then also performing the songs all in one video.

What is the inspiration behind changing famous sounds into hit songs?

What really inspires me is seeing an animal that is making a noise and giving human words/lyrics to the noise. There’s so much emotion in animals and I feel like I can really relate to a lot of the sounds. So I just sort of tell a story with how I think the animal is feeling through that sound.

How was it received by the public?

It’s been amazing! I never expected people to enjoy it so much. It’s honestly been such a gift.

You played ‘Dawn’ in the animated musical ‘Strange Magic’, how was it to be a part of that?

It was really special! There were some industry heavy hitters and Oscar winners working on the film. Being around those people for four years was just a once in a lifetime experience.

33

I’m sad that more people didn’t hear about the movie. It sort of got lost in the shuffle with Star Wars, as Disney had just purchased Lucasfilm and our film was the first movie to be released under Disney.

With which artist would you want to collaborate with?

There’s so many. But an artist that I often mention is Charlie Puth. I love his melodies and his production. I feel like I can really relate being someone who sings, writes, and produces their own stuff.

What have you learned about the industry/yourself since your first song ‘Scabs’?

Oh wow great question, and thanks for that throwback LOL. I’ve learned that the music industry is really a big game and if you’re not willing to play the game there isn’t really a place for you unfortunately. Now you can bend the rules slightly and play for the team of your choice, but you still have to be on a team and you still have to have a strategy. I hope that makes sense.

What was your favorite part of creating your music video for your newest single “I Don’t Wanna Be Touched”?

So many things! That video was so special to me. But the two biggest things that stand out are working with the horses from the Special Spirit Ranch – an organization in Los Angeles – and filming with Maple Cat. To have a live cat on the set of my music video was just such a thrill. I couldn’t believe it all came together, and that I now have a music video I shot with a cat which just seems so fitting for who I am.

Can we expect an album or EP soon?

Anything is possible :) …Definitely a single soon!
