(Third in our series featuring the Top 10 Independent Electronic Music Productions from Singapore-based artists in 2020)
bl.uum studios is the new project of Brandon Lum, also known as the electronic musician Brannlum who was actively recording collaborations with different vocalists and publishing EPs on YouTube and Bandcamp. As an Alumni of the NUS Electronic Music Lab (NUS EML http://nuseml.com) he sometimes also shares production tips and performs live in concert and in livestreams with them.
