Over the last few months, Australian artist JVLY has given us three exceptional new singles with SOUTH, LOCUM and DROWNING IN MY ROOM, while also building anticipation for his new ep SUNDER.
That ep is now scheduled for release on May 7th, but before we get to that, JVLY still has one more piece of the puzzle to share with us this week called, WALKED THE SUN, which is a mesmerising blend of breezy production, dreamy textures, and JVLY’s signature ethereal vocals, creating a soundscape that feels both nostalgic and forward-thinking. The track encapsulates the essence of “SUNDER,” marking a significant moment in JVLY’s musical journey.
“WALKED THE SUN is the final puzzle piece of SUNDER. I knew how I wanted this song to feel in relation to the whole project, but it took me a long time to find my way there. One of the things this EP looks at is the idea of being stuck in a loop, and I think this song speaks to the realization that the loop is not there anymore. And it’s not to say these loops are a bad thing either—maybe you even need them to see sometimes. ‘A honey sky paved the way, oh now I see, some pictures don’t need more paint’ is basically acknowledging that epiphany kind of moment that can come with a bit of perspective. And really, I just wanted it to sound like sunset.” ~ JVLY
