If you haven’t heard Rose Motion yet, I’m here to fix that for you.
Rose Motion began as a fun idea, born from years of experience in making music with various other projects. As Malik explains, “We actually started it right before Covid, thinking that Covid wouldn’t have happened. And then it did. So we were just kind of grinding on that idea for a while. I do this project with Jamie Rose, who is now my girlfriend, but was my best friend when we started it. We’ve been based in Vancouver for the majority of it.”
The project came to life from a desire to create something fresh and exciting. For the creator, the most rewarding part of the process is always being in the studio.
“My favorite part about the project, and really all my music projects, is just being in the studio creating,”
they share. While performing live is an incredible experience, especially when sharing the stage with Landy, the magic of making music is where the true connection happens. “The shows are great. And, you know, one of the highlights being playing with Landy, that was insane. And the crowd reaction. It just goes off.”
”It’s really rewarding seeing people really enjoy the music that you’ve spent hours and months and years sometimes creating,”
they explain. However, no matter how exciting the performances, the studio will always be the heart of their passion.
Looking ahead, Rose Motion is thrilled for their upcoming shows, including a mini-tour in Vancouver at the end of May. Before that, they’re releasing a collaboration with Glass Petals, Felix Cartel’s project, titled Just Let Go, which will be released on Night Base.
“So hella pumped for that one. That track goes hard every time we play at a show. It just goes off,”
they say, expressing excitement about the track’s high-energy vibe.
In addition to the Vancouver tour, the band will also be performing on the mainstage at Escapade Music Festival in Ottawa, a show they can hardly wait for.
“I can’t even put into words how excited I am to perform at that one,”
they admit. Beyond that, they have more releases in the works, including collaborations with Gemstone (part of Revealed) and Strange Love (part of Toru), all set to drop in the summer.
