The singer and producer known as Yellow Shoots is back with a thumping, catchy new single on La Reserve Records entitled “Possessed”. It’s the first release off a forthcoming EP from the Brooklyn-based artist (A.K.A. Greg Matthews) and finds him continuing a trend of blending diverse influences to create an enticingly original sound. Between the churning bass line and slinky falsetto vocals, “Possessed” is a stylish track that showcases Yellow Shoots’ impressive skills both as a producer and as a performer.
As the weighty title suggests, “Possessed” details Yellow Shoots in an emotionally charged and vulnerable state. He crafts a narrative that speaks to the feeling of succumbing to feelings that have gone beyond his control, a sensation he calls the “Riot in my mind.” It’s a common mood that often goes unacknowledged, making the tune particularly resonant. The raw emotion combined with Yellow Shoots’ fascinatingly unique sonic aesthetic make “Possessed” a track to remember.
Yellow Shoots’ upcoming EP is set for release this fall.
