Joel Christian Emerges As Dark-Pop’s Next Rising Artist

Electronic-pop artist Joel Christian is emerging as an artist to watch with his newest music video “Rise From The Grave“.

“Rise From The Grave” is a song written about the fear and anxiety that tries to weigh us down and bury us alive. “I wanted to write a song and create a music video that captured the battle between yourself and your emotional fear,” says Joel. Starting out like an eery horror film, the video quickly becomes an 80’s inspired synth-wave club record despite its dark thematic content. Taking place in a boxing arena, the video shows Joel battling with his own anxieties and fears as a creative artist, showcasing both his flamboyant energy as a performance artist and the more aggressive, fearlessly ready to fight side – symbolizing that even some of the most aggressive places can breathe creativity and vulnerability. The music itself is dynamically upbeat, boasting both electronic and pop elements to create Christian’s niche of “dark-pop”. Needless to say, with over 110K streams on Spotify and 11K+ followers on Instagram, Joel Christian is striking a chord amongst fans by boldly stepping into a spotlight that is uniquely his own. Joel continues to use his platform to create a dark-pop musical escape with his highly anticipated single “Hell Raiser” due to release towards the end of May.
