“Coven” - Mortez

Let’s talk about Mortez—a sonic fever dream born out of the glitz and grit of Los Angeles, but carrying the spirit of something far older, darker, and more mystical. The duo—Brett Daniels and Rachele Royale—aren’t just making music. They’re casting spells. Their debut original single “Coven,” released May 11th, 2025, feels less like a song and more like an incantation whispered through velvet curtains in some velvet-draped gothic hideaway. It’s dramatic. It’s orchestral. And most of all, it’s real.Let’s talk about Mortez—a sonic fever dream born out of the glitz and grit of Los Angeles, but carrying the spirit of something far older, darker, and more mystical.
