OMG, this collaboration!
Australia-based JVLY & edapollo both have a strong presence in our blog and the fact they teamed up brings not only joy but also an amazing listening experience.
"windless" is a genre-defying piece that blends Bonobo-like downtempo electronica with Rhye-like dreamy vocals and a splash of r&b. JVLY shares:
I like the idea of the same song making you feel a different way when you hear it in a different context. We wanted to create something hazy and dreamlike that you can get lost in alone in your room, but when you hear it loud around other people, it might have a different effect.
Melbourne producer adds:
I started the instrumental back in early 2018 but it needed work so it lay dormant for a long while, until I started chatting with Kayle (JVLY) last year. I sent him some unreleased bits and pieces and the instrumental really resonated with him so he laid down the vocals which gave the track a new depth and feel. I think the final version finds a unique balance between both our individual styles.
Another example of how effortless life can be.
