Astor Storm ‘Lift Him Up’ – out now!
Astor Storm’s “Lift Him Up” is the kind of track that makes you instinctively look out of a window like you’re in a music video you didn’t audition for. It’s emotional electronic pop with industrial edges, but not in a “soundcloud dystopia” way — more like if heartbreak learned how to use Ableton and started journaling in synths. Everything feels intentionally oversized: the beats hit like slow thunder, and the synths hover like they’re deciding whether to haunt you or heal you.
What makes it land is the tension at the core. This is a song about emotional inheritance and breaking cycles, but it never turns into a lecture or a therapy monologue. Instead, it feels like someone pacing in a beautiful, expensive room trying to decide whether they’re finally done repeating the past. The repetition of “Lift Him Up” starts to feel less like a lyric and more like a glitching mantra — the kind your brain accidentally adopts at 2 a.m.
And somehow, it works as both a breakdown and a glow-up at the same time. There’s grief here, sure, but it’s the productive kind — the kind that makes you clean your entire life at 3 a.m. and text someone “I understand everything now” before immediately overthinking it. Astor Storm doesn’t just process emotion on this track — he turns it into something you can move through, even dance to if you’re brave enough.
