"Zohara had sent me her music a few years ago, and it immediately struck me as being unique and special. "She is a really talented producer and a wonderful singer. I was immediately struck by how her music combines both various influences not often heard together but was also really catchy. When she first sent me the demo of 'Sing A Song', it was stuck in my head for days". Wrench founded a new label, Studio Bruxo, and ZOHARA became his first signee. They released three singles together in 2021, and 2022.
