Co-produced alongside Callum MacDonald from daste., ‘SOUTH’ is a reflection on the cyclical patterns we often find ourselves in, from talented Australian artist JVLY. The track’s dreamy, somewhat "wonky" keys and persistent groove embody this sense of tension, creating a contrast between its chilled-out vibe and the deeper introspection it explores. The balance of mellow R&B influences, reminiscent of acts like NEIL FRANCES and LEISURE, pairs beautifully with JVLY's signature laid-back yet poignant style.
The track immediately pulls listeners into its hypnotic rhythm, offering a sonic escape while also encouraging self-reflection. The production is sleek yet organic, with each layer thoughtfully arranged to maintain a sense of fluidity throughout. Butler’s smooth vocals float effortlessly over the track, further enhancing its atmospheric quality.
Fans of cinematic experiences will also find themselves drawn to the broader concept behind SUNDER. JVLY has shared that the EP is visually inspired by films like Enter The Void and Requiem for a Dream, which suggests that SOUTH is just a taste of the deeper, thematic journey to come.
