Emboldened by a keen, observant character, London-based multimedia artist JeezJesus has had to grapple with the heightened decadence and moral corruption present in modern society, a quality that has certainly weighed heavily on the minds of many folks out there. In the case of the British artist, he was able to unpack and decode the wonky reality around him by doing what he does best: making art. ‘I See You’ is the perfect evidence of that. A rebellious, rowdy and hard-hitting electro-punk cut, the record oscillates between leftfield aural features and truthful storytelling.
Taking a stand against the failing political and socio-economic landscape of our times, JeezJesus seeks to reaffirm his beliefs by sharing awareness and common understanding, perhaps hoping to inspire like-minded listeners and reassure anyone in need of help. Overall, ‘I See You’ feels pretty dystopian and whimsical, especially when it comes to its sonic allure. It’s a treasure trove of electropunk and nostalgic synth-pop references, a piece that also highlights JeezJesus’ production prowess.
You see, the British alchemist boasts a past as a music technology student in Manchester, skills that have followed him through multiple projects and endeavours. Delving deeper into ‘I See You’, JeezJesus explains: “This is another song that expresses to people that they are not alone in this current dystopia. Now more than ever is this song appropriate as we as a species continue to become more and more polarised from each other.”
