Pop artist Nissu introduces himself to the world with an impactful new EP, Memories, a collection of six tracks dedicated to love, friendship, and resilience. Drawing on personal experience and proven to work by artists such as Katy Perry, Nissu has designed a song that evokes memories in listeners, allowing them to experience their most treasured moments.
Running just under 20 minutes, "Memories" is a perfectly curated experience that feels raw, emotional, catchy, and earnest. One track tells a vignette of Nissu’s life, creating an imaginative kaleidoscope of longing, connections, dormant love, and powerful bonds. A subtle thread of joy and heartache runs through the EP, and ultimately, it plays a universal note that offers something to everyone.
Nissu is a brilliant lyricist who displays a delicate balance of vulnerability and pop on standout tracks like "Forever Mine" and "In My Heart." "Forever Mine" comes across as an act of devotion, with shimmering synths and a high chorus that sticks long after the last note. Meanwhile, "In My Heart" is an inward-looking, bittersweet song with a melody that encapsulates the beauty of holding onto memories even as time rolls on.
The specter of the pandemic hangs over 'Memories, ' which is thus not only a personal diary but a communion with listeners who have experienced love and loss over the past several years. Combined with Nissu’s evocative storytelling and hauntingly heartfelt vocal work, this is a gripping EP from beginning to end.
Memories is a musical time capsule on all streaming platforms today, preserving the emotions and experiences we all share. Memories are a story told through joy and introspection.
