We’ve got something a little different for you this week and we hope you will appreciate its calming effects as much as we do. Rising electronic producer J. Juva—aka Joel Neale—is an innovative new artist who creates ambient electronic music that is perfect for these trying days.
We’ll be the first to admit that we’re not uniquely dialed into the very latest happenings in the electronic world, but J. Juva’s latest single “Miasma” is making us sit up and take note. Mixing lo-fi synths with charming melodies and analogue experimentation, “Miasma” evokes a cocktail of sounds from the offset that are bound to perk your ears up instantly. Fans of Four Tet and Mount Kimbie will feel at home here.
Joel may have some very strong production talent, but he’s also a professional guitarist for indie rock group Saltwater Sun—talk about keeping yourself busy in lockdown! J. Juva is obviously worlds apart from the rock world but you can hear the gentle guitar strumming on “Miasma” creeping in, making the song stand out from the norm even more.
“Miasma” is taken from J. Juva’s upcoming EP “Protozoa,” due in stores on 24th July 2020.
