Revelle27: Turning Grief Into Groove — A Story of Healing, Honesty & Heartfelt Dance Music

Revelle27’s music isn’t just meant to fill dance floors—it’s meant to reach hearts. In a deeply moving conversation with Maxine from Nexus Radio, the electronic musician opened up about the personal journey that shaped his latest creative chapter. What unfolded was an emotional, insightful, and unexpectedly uplifting look into how art can heal, transform, and reconnect us with the parts of ourselves we’re afraid to face.

Revelle27—now in the third year of his solo project—shared how this new era of music stems directly from profound personal loss. “I lost my mum two years ago,” he revealed with quiet vulnerability. More than a parent, she was his compass, his confidante, the person he called from the studio to share new ideas and celebrate moments of creative joy. Her passing changed everything, both personally and musically.

Instead of retreating, Revelle27 chose to channel his grief into creation. The result is “Revelations,” a debut album he describes as “grief in dance music.” It’s a concept rarely explored in the genre—pairing emotional depth with energetic production—and the result is something deeply human. “What I’ve learned from that and finding a new purpose again,” he said, captures the very essence of the project. Each track serves as a chapter in his search for meaning, offering solace and connection to listeners navigating their own losses

What stands out most in the interview is Revelle27’s sincerity. His philosophy is simple yet powerful: “If you do something that you really, really believe in, you ain’t gotta sell nothing.” Authenticity isn’t just part of his process—it’s the backbone of his identity as an artist. He wants his music to shift perspectives, spark hope, and help people find clarity in the chaos.

Even with the heavy themes, the conversation wasn’t without its bursts of humor. When playfully asked what type of cheese best represents his sound, he chose Brie de Meaux—“because it hits you hard.” It’s a fitting comparison for music designed to surprise, stir emotion, and linger long after the last note fades.

As the interview drew to a close, one thing became clear: Revelle27 isn’t just crafting beats—he’s crafting connection. His journey from loss to creative rebirth is woven into every melody, giving his debut album the emotional gravity of a story shared with close friends. “Revelations” isn’t just an album; it’s a tribute to his mother, a love letter to resilience, and an invitation for listeners to reflect on their own journeys.
