Calia Sorel and Aaron Bing Reimagine “Velvet Static” for New Sax & Vocal Remix
Century Records brings two distinctive musical voices together as Aaron Bing joins Calia Sorel on saxophone for a new version of her debut single.
LOS ANGELES - Century Records is announcing a new chapter for Calia Sorel’s “Velvet Static” with an upcoming remix featuring recording artist and saxophonist Aaron Bing.
Reimagined as a saxophone and vocal duet, “Velvet Static (Remix)” featuring Aaron Bing brings a new dimension to the atmospheric pop and R&B record, pairing Sorel’s expressive vocal performance with Bing’s signature saxophone sound.
Originally released on August 4, 2026, “Velvet Static” introduced Calia Sorel as one of Century Records’ newest voices, establishing a sound centered around modern pop, R&B, emotional storytelling and a polished, cinematic aesthetic.
The remix expands that introduction.
Rather than simply adding a guest appearance to the original recording, the new version is being developed around the musical interaction between Sorel’s voice and Bing’s saxophone, allowing the instrument to function almost like a second vocalist throughout the record.
Bing’s saxophone lines provide a soulful counterpoint to Sorel’s vocal, moving between subtle melodic responses and more prominent instrumental moments designed to give the remix its own identity.
A New Interpretation of “Velvet Static”
“Velvet Static” was created around the tension between attraction, emotion and the uncertainty that can exist between two people when the connection is undeniable but difficult to define.
The remix preserves that emotional foundation while introducing another musical voice into the conversation.
Sorel carries the lyrical narrative, while Bing’s saxophone adds another layer of expression—sometimes answering the vocal, sometimes surrounding it and at other moments stepping forward to become the emotional center of the track.
The result is intended to feel less like a traditional feature and more like a true vocal-and-instrument duet.
For Century Records, the collaboration also represents an opportunity to bridge elements of contemporary pop and R&B with the expressive sound of live saxophone.
Calia Sorel Continues Her Introduction
With “Velvet Static,” Calia Sorel began establishing the musical and visual direction that will define her work moving forward.
Her sound combines contemporary pop and R&B with emotional depth, modern glamour and subtle Spanish-inspired elegance, creating a style that can move naturally between intimate records and larger cinematic productions.
The new remix allows listeners to experience another side of that sound while keeping Sorel’s vocal and identity at the center of the record.
The collaboration also marks one of the first extensions of the “Velvet Static” era following the song’s original release.
Aaron Bing Brings His Signature Saxophone Sound
Aaron Bing joins the remix as its featured saxophonist, adding the instrument that has remained central to his career as a recording artist and musician.
Known for blending saxophone with pop, R&B, soul and contemporary production, Bing approaches the new version of “Velvet Static” as a musical conversation rather than a traditional instrumental solo.
His performance is designed to weave through the record alongside Sorel’s vocal and create moments where the two sounds appear to respond directly to one another.
That interaction becomes one of the defining elements of the remix.
Two Artists. Two Sounds. One Record.
The collaboration reflects Century Records’ broader approach to developing music that does not have to remain confined to one genre.
By pairing Sorel’s contemporary pop/R&B direction with Bing’s saxophone, “Velvet Static (Remix)” creates a meeting point between vocal pop, soul and instrumental performance.
It also gives the label an opportunity to introduce the two artists together in a way that feels organic to both of their musical identities.
The newly revealed promotional artwork captures that concept visually, presenting Sorel and Bing together while emphasizing the remix’s identity as a sax and vocal duet.
“Velvet Static (Remix)” Calia Sorel featuring Aaron Bing is coming soon through Century Records.
Additional information regarding the official release date, streaming availability and accompanying promotional content will be announced by Century Records.
