Jam City Reborn: Avant-Dance Producer Finds New Pop Energy
6 Oct
Summary
- Producer Jam City delivers an energized blend of 80s club, pop, and R&B.
- The track 'My World' features three vocalists offering a dynamic pop hook.
- Jam City revisits dance music roots after years exploring pop's outskirts.
UK producer Jam City has unveiled a fresh sound on his latest album, expertly weaving together '80s-tinged club beats, pop sensibilities, and R&B rhythms. The opening track, "My World," exemplifies this resurgence, presenting a sprightly composition with a prominent bassline and captivating hooks delivered by three vocalists.
This new direction signifies a departure from Jam City's earlier work, which included the influential 2012 debut "Classical Curves." Following that release, producer Jack Latham spent years exploring the periphery of pop music, notably co-producing for Kelela and releasing his own "Dream a Garden" LP.
His recent output shows a strong affinity for collaborating with vocalists, utilizing his signature fuzzy guitar playing and soft-edged synths to create a cohesive and feel-good atmosphere. The album captures a seamless blend of pre-party excitement, nightclub energy, and post-event calm.
