MUSIC AND TOURS
An immersive sonic odyssey that transcends traditional listening
Award-winning electronic artist and immersive experience creator JOY de ROSE (formerly Joy Lee) unveils her groundbreaking immersive album, Who Am I—a deeply personal and revolutionary sonic journey. Leaving behind a secure career in dermatology, JOY de ROSE embarked on a bold path of self-discovery, channeling her passion for creativity into electronic music, multimedia art, and immersive technology. The result is a sonic odyssey that redefines the boundaries of music and immersive storytelling.
Who Am I is more than an album—it’s an immersive experience. Through experimental electronic soundscapes and evocative vocals, JOY crafts a richly layered auditory world, guiding listeners through the emotional highs and lows of her decade-long transformation. Each of the album’s eight tracks unfolds like a chapter, drawing the audience into a multidimensional journey of personal and artistic evolution.
Harnessing Sony’s cutting-edge 360 Reality Audio technology, Who Am I transcends traditional listening, pulling audiences deep into JOY’s inner world. Every note and nuance invites listeners to witness her artistic evolution—not just as an observer, but as a participant in her transformation. This fusion of immersive audio and multimedia storytelling shifts the listening experience from passive to fully embodied.
“I want my work to feel like a journey. In collaboration with the Sony 360 Reality Audio team, we’ve been experimenting and pushing the boundaries to create a truly immersive sonic experience. Using 360 Reality Audio, it was like painting with sound, crafting a multidimensional space,” says JOY de ROSE. “It’s electronic surrealism—blending the unexpected with the sublime.”

Audriix's (pronounced Audrey) powerful voice and multi-instrumental talents make her a standout up-and-coming star in contemporary pop and pop singer-songwriter music
Top 40 charting artist Audriix released her highly anticipated new single, Where the Boys Are, on February 14, just in time for Valentine’s Day. The upbeat, synth-pop track was co-written and produced by Grammy Award-winning artist Kevin Rudolf (Let It Rock, I Made It), marking a significant milestone in Audriix’s career.
Where the Boys Are is a playful anthem that dives deep into the internal battle between desire and hesitation. The song explores the electric pull of attraction and the moment when someone’s reluctance makes you realize that if they’re not ready to take the leap, you’ll move on and find someone who is. With its infectious beat and confident message, Where the Boys Are is a celebration of knowing your worth and embracing what you want.
“This song is about owning your desires and not waiting around for someone to catch up,” Audriix says. “It’s playful, empowering, and all about taking control. Because once you settle for someone who’s not ready, you’ll always crave more.”
The collaboration with Kevin Rudolf brings a new dimension to Audriix’s growing artistry, with his production and songwriting pedigree elevating her already strong presence in the pop scene. Known for his work with top artists…
