Finnish electronic music producer Breathing Statue, the stage name of Ilari Halonen, has released a new single “Tears My Heart” from his latest EP Pandora’s Box.
This high energy track boldly fuses tearout dubstep with rock influences, delivering a powerful emotional message about overcoming personal trauma and the destructive nature of violence.
“Tears My Heart is very personal for me,” says Breathing Statue. “I poured my pain and hope into this track to transform trauma into strength. It’s heavy and energetic, but at its core it’s about healing and the courage to overcome.”
Breathing Statue, who works as a church musician in Joensuu, now sets his sights on reaching audiences beyond his hometown.
He has been passionate about video games and electronic music since the 1990s – a love that laid the foundation for his dynamic, genre-blending sound. Halonen aspires to connect with international listeners and share his music through live performances on global stages.
Over the years, Breathing Statue has independently released more than seven albums and EPs, including a newly remastered album titled Performance.
