Diaspora Dreams

Diaspora Dreams is the combination of Bei Ru’s airy, lofi charm, Krista Marina’s smooth, bluesy allure and the neo-soulful, middle eastern flare the two share. Together, they have created a sound that is equal parts moody and mythical. They invite you to step into their world, as the door opens with their dreamy debut, “Noir.”

Bei Ru is an LA-based multi-genre producer, composer, instrumentalist, and vocalist with a sound marked by a blend of airy, syrupy electronic, soul, psych, middle eastern, house & funk influences. Since the release of his debut LP, Little Armenia, he has honed a sound that sits at the nexus of neo-soul and left-field instrumental electronic music. Evolving and flourishing over the course of multiple projects since, he has also worked with artists such as Old Man Saxon, Peyton, Roc Marciano, Blu, Sebu of Capital Cities, and has scored music for CBS, Nike, Vice and PBS, to name a few.

Krista Marina is an alternative pop/r&b singer, songwriter and producer whose music displays jazz, blues, and occasional hints of the middle eastern soul she grew up with, crafting a sound that is familiar yet fresh. Since the release of "Meant To Be," which she co-wrote with Arc North, Krista has written for networks like CBS, while also lending her voice, writing and production to collaborations with Tim Atlas, Jorg Huttner and many others.

The duo's debut album dropped July 2022! The journey has just begun, as they have more transcending tunes on the way.
