Deb Fan's newest track "Lady" elegantly saunters between melancholic and groovy as we're supplied with contrasting emotions on the instrumental and vocals respectively.
Born and raised in Hong Kong, Deb Fan brings a unique approach to songwriting and producing that gives her music an inimitable depth and nuance. "Lady" serves as an amazing example of this sentiment, especially since it's a sound that sits in a rare position. The glistening pianos hanging in the backdrop enrich her airy, emotionally charged vocal delivery as she tackles complex themes throughout her songwriting. I really can't neglect to mention the bass arrangement! It serves as the bones of the instrumental portion with its beefy presence and simple groove.
"Lady prompts a deep reflection of the complexities of modern femininity from her perspective as a Taiwanese immigrant living in the US. The track blends the live instrumentation of 90s R&B and the visual soundscapes of impressionist-era classical music, reclaiming themes of rebirth and challenging stereotypes at the intersection of technology, tradition, and femininity"
