Isis Destiny: “R U Mine ?” (feat. Opera Mauv)

3 min • 23 juli 2024

Poetry. Painting. Tailoring. And that’s all in one audacious Austinite’s regular wheelhouse, without even accounting for their live performance pursuits. Like…save some media forms for the rest of us, sheesh!

While there’s assuredly a ton of people out there who fit that bill, today we’re talking about Austin’s Isis Destiny, formerly Amira Isis Destiny. Since being introducted to guitar and lyrical expression in her mid-tweens, Destiny’s done a damn fine job of drawing others into her multi-disciplinary triumphs – be it dancing, DJing, or anything else to help put on an unforgettable show. On the original music side of things, Isis Destiny’s shown a deep understanding of everything from ’90s neo soul to golden age disco, and weaved those lessons into her own inspiring originals, as heard on last September’s Scorpio Rising EP. And apparently Isis’ inspiration is near endless, since just after returning from her first ever tour, she’s already hopping on something new: an alt-jazz-pop project that goes by The Lover Girls Collective.

Yet once again, that’s not all; Isis Destiny is also embarking on a once-a-month collaborative single release, starting with last weekend’s “R U Mine ?”. Before we hand that off though, we gotta give y’all the scoop on ID’s upcoming gigs: Monday, August 5th at Volstead Lounge as part of the Underground Voices all-girl open mic showcase, Saturday, August 10th at Cozy Canna’s 4th street grand opening, and Sunday, August 11th at Wanderlust Wine Co.’s Barton Springs location. Back to “R U Mine ?”…this shimmering specimen of electro-pop (created in tandem with fellow Central Texan Opera Mauv), flirty synths set the mood for highly refined verse vocals, four-to-the-floor drums, and restless bass. Altogether they swell up to and cool off from the UK garage-style vocal chops and snare shuffle of the tune’s minimalist titular hook in such a way that each chorus drop just seems to go harder and harder.

So go ahead and grab it below; it’s all yours.
