Fresh off a highlight performance at this years instalment of Coachella, Jai Wolf comes through with a commanding new single ‘(I Dread The Day He Takes You To) Paris’ (feat. MYRNE) as well as news of a mammoth US tour kicking off in August with a superstar lineup of supports.
‘(I Dread The Day He Takes You To) Paris’ sets up a swift soundscape from the word go with a speedy percussive groove setting the tone that couples nicely with those acoustic guitars and MYRNE‘s gentle vocals. As the beats rise through the surface throughout the opening section, Jai Wolf subtly inserts more electronic influence which leads into the emphatic chorus section filled with bright synths injecting plenty of colour and passion into the already vibrant mix.
‘This era feels like a true rebirth by pushing my sound into new territories while still feeling grounded in my usual sonic palette…While a lot of electronic music is defined by the production, I really wanted to focus on lyrics and songwriting for the new music.’ – Jai Wolf
