Timur
New single ‘Sabotage’
Timur follows her revered first single ‘Not A Criminal’ with a sequel to her cardinal release that discusses the hardships of toxic relationships in her latest single ‘Sabotage.’
Following the rush of ‘Not A Criminal’ (gaining more than 500,000 views on youtube), the music video for ‘Sabotage’ is part two of a triad directed by Datuk Yusry Abdul Halim. The story follows Justin, a police officer, as he investigates several students accused in a high stakes bank robbery.
‘Sabotage’ comes to life through Timur’s peak and valley vocals, pristine phrasing, and playful range. She utilizes her roots and intensive training with vocal coach Datuk Syafiaz to deliver an unrivaled performance. Comparable to artists such as BLACKPINK and 2NE1, she has recently collaborated with Gustav Efraimsson (Monsta X/NKOTBSB).
Malaysian Swiss artist Timur Flores’ deep love for the arts was present from an early age. Born and raised in Malaysia and the UK, it was there she studied ballet and also an array of musical instruments. Learning to play piano, ukulele and saxophone, Timur often performed on stage at various showcases. Taught by vocal trainer Datukm Syafinaz, she went from singing in the shower to becoming a full-blown powerhouse.
Now contracted by prominent Malaysian record label KRU Music, their plan is to catapult the singer into international stardom. She reveals, “Having signed with KRU Music is very exciting for me because it means a big step. Here’s to hoping that everything will be going well!”
Fluent in English, Mandarin and Malay, Timur’s first single entitled “Not A Criminal”, which was launched last April, managed to garner more than 500,000 views on YouTube. Interestingly, the music video received an extraordinary response abroad, especially in the United States, Taiwan and the Philippines. Considering “Not A Criminal” is Timur’s debut single coupled with the fact that she is based in Malaysia, it is also an encouraging achievement to get extensive media coverage abroad, especially in the United States and the United Kingdom. Timur is now back with her second single “Sabotage”.
