LISTENING SESSION: Tension Building with Hymn 2026 in New York – Silence Please

What is LISTENING SESSION: Tension Building with Hymn?

Micro-misalignments reads as longing: two bodies close enough to feel each other’s heat, but moving on different internal schedules. The listener senses intimacy not through harmony, but through proximity without synchronization. The cruel and gorgeous thing? Tension feeds on delay. The longer it stretches, the richer it gets. Anticipation becomes harmony. Wanting becomes rhythm. You’re living inside the climb, vibrating with it, knowing that when release finally comes, it will only matter because of all this beautiful, unbearable almost dissonant disenchantment. Hymn born from Brooklyn favorite BATTYGYAL, a world-building production project & alias rooted in atmosphere, restraint, and emotional weight. Drawing from the soft gravity of R&B and soul while traversing trap-inflected meadows and textural lowlands, Hymn creates lushly exotic soundscapes that unfold patiently and linger long after they fade. The project favors immersion over immediacy music designed as an environment, a devotion, a place to stay.
