‘yours’ sounds like a faraway mirage, a slice of heaven fallen on earth by chance. Guided by the hypnotic and spacious vocals of New York-based creative Derin, the record unfolds a listening experience that’s dreamy and hazy, an aural carpet packed with ethereal textures and malleable electronica. Derin’s melodies are rather relatable and approachable, always carrying a keen pop allure that’s elegant and luscious. Apparently, it’s been ten years since the American artist shared any music: we are glad she decided to allow us back into her creative space.
Judging by what we heard so far, there’s a lot more mesmerising material on the horizon – looking forward to hearing more. Delving deeper into ‘yours’, Derin explains: “It captures both intimacy and resilience. Built around ethereal harmonies and raw emotion, the track explores the kind of devotion that feels unshakable even when the world itself feels unstable and chaotic. Equal parts intimate confession and quiet defiance, the song lays bare a love so total it feels like it’s always been.”
