Timur Flores

“Even though my family is now based in Europe, Malaysia is home for me. I love the warmth, the variety of food and the multitude of cultures, and that’s why I decided to begin my music journey here”

Timur Flores, a prodigious singer-songwriter with a Swiss-Sarawakian heritage, holds a profound connection to Malaysia, where she was born and raised.

Despite her academic achievements, including a Masters degree in Engineering from Oxford University and a stint in the financial industry, Timur made the bold choice to pursue a career in the realm of pop music. Fuelled by her lifelong passion for diverse musical genres and dance, she sought to carve a path for herself in the creative industry.

Blessed with a captivating voice that seamlessly blends melodious tones with an undeniable power, Timur has dedicated recent years to honing her songwriting abilities. Now, she stands resolute in her ambition to establish her presence not only in Malaysia but also on the global stage. Timur, whose very name evokes the spirit of the East, endeavours to channel her songwriting and hip-hop dancing talents back into her homeland, seeking success in the East while captivating audiences worldwide.

Although Timur departed for the UK at the age of 15 to pursue further education, her heart remains firmly rooted in Malaysia. The country’s warm embrace, its vibrant array of culinary delights, and its rich multicultural tapestry serve as a wellspring of inspiration for her musical journey.

Recently, Timur unveiled a tetralogy of songs—Not A Criminal, Sabotage, Love You Now, and Carnival—each accompanied by a meticulously crafted music video. This musical quartet, a testament to Timur’s creativity, weaves an engaging narrative that transcends individual tracks and advocates for championing the innocent against bullying. Collaborating with accomplished teams hailing from LA and Sweden, renowned for their work with notable K-pop groups, Timur’s songs resonate with authenticity and relatability.

Among the multitude of artists who have influenced her, none have left as indelible a mark on Timur as Shakira. Her formative years were filled with admiration for Shakira’s mesmerising dance skills and magnetic stage presence. Now, Timur is poised to release her own self-written song titled “Dance Through My Heart” this summer—a poignant expression of her beliefs and personal experiences.
