Building an imaginary bridge between two Australian cities, ‘HEARTSONG’ sees Brisbane’s own pop icon ALBI. and Melbourne-based visionary Jewel Owusu team up on an electrifying slice of dance-inducing pop music. Framed into ALBI.’s forthcoming debut EP, the record signals yet another milestone for the warehouse-worker-by-day, artist-by-night creative. Drawing influences from the freshest R&B and hyperpop, as well as from mainstream-leaning girlie anthems, ‘HEARTSONG’ uncovers a hypnotic listening experience, one that’s evidence of ALBI.’s game-changing potential.
Produced by emerging British-Thai talent Song Higginson, the single engages ALBI. and Owusu at their best. Exchanging verses and then clustering into unified vocal harmonies, the Australian pair fits each other’s artistry rather well, showcasing a certain affinity and collective allure. Overall, we feel as though ‘HEARTSONG’ is the sort of material that doesn’t require deep abstraction. Instead, it pays to truly delve into its listening experience, rather kinetic and instinctual; primordial energy at its best.
