Hazard is a sonic thesis on resilience. With retro textures evoking dusty memories and futuristic vocal layering that seems plucked from a dreamstate yet to come, Stephan Folkes crafts an emotional experience both grounded and otherworldly.
Across ten tracks, Hazard explores personal upheaval, emotional rebirth, and the tension between vulnerability and self-preservation. Songs like “Incomplete” expose the raw mechanics of avoidance and inner conflict, while “It’s About Time” speaks to broader social reckoning. The title track, “Hazard,” is a concise statement of defiance—a rejection of toxicity and a reclaiming of one’s own emotional boundaries.
Stephan’s fusion of industrial tones and psychedelic R&B isn’t accidental; it mirrors his lived experience navigating trauma, disability, and artistic independence. This is not a collection made to please algorithms. It’s art made to heal—and challenge.
There’s weight in every choice: from stripped-down piano breaks to walls of sound echoing with unresolved tension. Hazard is an act of self-assertion. It proves that the most fragile parts of us can become the loudest and clearest instruments when given the freedom to speak.
