Meet UAE techno-pop artist behind Echoes of Humanity

Sarah R Jay blends orchestral music with cutting-edge electronic production

- BY ASHFAQ AHMED Senior Assistant Editor

Have we evolved or just forgotten how to feel? That is the burning question behind Echoes of Humanity, the latest melodic techno-pop release from rising UAE-based artist Sarah R Jay.

It blends soaring vocals, cinematic soundscapes, raw piano and pulsing electronic beats. We have learnt to fly, to code, to cure but we still forget to feel — that single lyric cuts to the core of Sarah's message: While technology has surged forward, our emotional connections have frayed.

Just weeks after her eco-anthem Earth is Crying, Sarah returns with a track that is less protest and more poetry.
