Ohio-based singer-songwriter and indie pop artist BJSR (Benjamin Rivet) shares a reimagined version of his heartfelt ballad “I Need You,” taking us on an emotive journey of connection, dependency and needing someone else.
Originally released in 2019 the lush production transforms into a refreshing and immersive offering in the remixed version. Blending echoing percussion, modern synths, intricate guitars and passionate lyrics, the track is elevated by a fresh vocal bridge written and performed by Dave Zup, enhancing the song’s hopeful romanticism and emotional impact.
Reflecting on being reliant on someone, the track is an internal and interpersonal acknowledgment that needing the love and support of others is not only ok, but wonderful. Transforming doubt into a euphoric resolution, the track with its layered vocals and genre-bending soundscape makes for a meaningful yet catchy listening experience.
A must-listen for fans of indie folk, pop, and genre-bending storytelling, the track is accompanied by cinematic, surreal visuals filmed and produced entirely by Ben himself in a single performance take. Making use of groundbreaking in-camera technique featuring WiFi HDMI transmitters, RGB LED panels, and a TV screen background to create a mesmerizing “infinity loop” effect, the innovative and immersive video takes the track to new heights.
Having built a career on pushing artistic and technological boundaries, BJSR continues to redefine what it means to be an independent artist in the modern era with each new release.
