G.E.M., born in Shanghai in 1991, moved to Hong Kong when she was 4. She’s a killer Chinese pop singer, songwriter, producer, and even a screenwriter. She’s got over 120 original tracks under her belt, and her hit "Light Years Away" still holds the Guinness World Record for most views on a Chinese MV. In 2022, she dropped her all-original album "Revelation" and wrote a 14-episode music series for it. Fast forward to 2023, she released her first all-Spanish album "Revelación" and kicked off her "I AM GLORIA" world tour, which landed her in the top 4 highest-grossing female tours globally. And get this—in 2025, she’s stepping into the literary world with her debut sci-fi novel "The Path of Revelation,"picking up where her album left off, blending blending the connection between the universe, consciousness, life, computer science, astrophysics, and theology to dive deep into big questions such as, ‘Can AI learn to love?,’ and more.
Anyma is the American-born Italian electronic music and multidisciplinary artist Matteo Milleri. Renowned for boundary-defying techno compositions, visuals, and live shows, Anyma became the first electronic music artist to hold a residency at Sphere in Las Vegas. The meticulously produced Afterlife Presents Anyma: “The End of Genesys” cybernetic opera featured esteemed collaborations with hand-selected producers, visual artists, musicians, and DJs, and drew in an audience of 200,000 people across all 12 dates. Exploring themes of technology, nature, humanity, and coexistence, Anyma also created the Genesys album trilogy. A debut album, Genesys, came out in 2023, followed by 2024’s Genesys II (Afterlife/Interscope), with a third, recently released album, The End of Genesys. Anyma’s collaborators across albums and live shows have included Sevdaliza, Grimes, Ellie Goulding, FKA Twigs, John Summit and many more. In addition to Anyma, Milleri has been an inimitable force in the underground dance scene spanning well over a decade. He is one half of the electronic duo Tale Of Us, who created Afterlife Records and the global Afterlife event movement tagged “an odyssey throughout the realm of consciousness.” Milleri’s commitment to raising global consciousness by melding music, tech, and art in a revolutionary manner is unprecedented. He has helped create many groundbreaking events including ones for Afterlife throughout Europe, South America and Mexico, and Anyma events in Melbourne and Istanbul, as well as performances at Coachella and Tomorrowland. In 2024, he took on visual creative direction for The Weeknd’s “One Night Only” concert in São Paulo, Brazil. His remixes of Fred Again…'s "Turn On The Lights again..(feat. Future)" and Lana Del Rey's "Say Yes To Heaven" have seen great success. Anyma just wrapped up his summer residency at [UNVRS] in Ibiza. He also headlined Ultra Miami 2025 with a B2B set with DJ and producer Solomun, for a first-ever, world-exclusive performance for the festival’s 25th anniversary, and performed at Sziget Festival, Zürich Open Air, and many more. Recently, Anyma launched the beginning of his creative partnership with Oakley, he was announced as a 2026 Coachella headliner, was ranked #10 on DJ Mag’s Top 100 DJs list, and delivered a sold-out performance at the iconic Pyramids of Giza, where he unveiled his groundbreaking two-part show, “Quantum Genesys.”
She first made waves at Eurovision 2023 as one half of TEYA & SALENA, delivering the viral hit “Who the Hell Is Edgar?” to an international audience. Two years on, TEYA is stepping into her own – sharper, bolder and more versatile than ever, with a musical vision that reaches far beyond the confines of conventional pop. Her upcoming EP Corporate Composer (due early 2026 via Warner Music / Manifester Music) marks a new era: a genre-blending mix of Y2K-inspired pop, hip-hop attitude and lyrical depth, tackling topics like female empowerment, social critique and personal growth.
TEYA is not only a singer but also a songwriter, producer, and creative visionary. She co-wrote and helped shape Wasted Love, the 2024 Eurovision-winning song performed by JJ. With her powerhouse voice and fearless creativity, TEYA defines the new wave of authentic pop artists.
Chrissy Costanza is a powerhouse vocalist and songwriter who for over a decade has established herself as one of alternative music’s most captivating voices, blending cinematic rock with modern alt energy.
As the lead singer of the internationally acclaimed rock band Against The Current, Chrissy has sold out tours across the globe and collaborated with major franchises like League of Legends on anthems that have surpassed a billion streams, including the worldwide hit “Legends Never Die.”
Beyond the band, Chrissy has become a sought-after voice in global projects, lending her talent to the anthemic “Phoenix” and AAA gaming soundtracks such as Marvel Rivals, Final Fantasy XVI, and most recently Genshin Impact’s 2025 release “Blazing Heart.” This body of work earned her the title of “video games’ go-to soundtrack queen” by NME. In 2024, she made her solo debut with VII, launching a bold new era with a sold-out tour across the US and Europe.
Outside of music, Chrissy has built a loyal following through her gaming and streaming presence, as well as collaborations with leading brands and creators. Standing at the intersection of music and digital culture, she continues to use her platform to empower fans and bring alternative music to new audiences worldwide.
