It was there that | | he met fellow artist, Nosaj Thing and the two proved to be a natural | | fit. They immediately headed to Nosaj Thing's home studio to record | | together, and the result is '3,' an aptly-titled three track EP. The | | EP follows their returning single "Next To Me", which was teased out | | just the week before on January 24th. | | | | Nosaj, who's previous collaborators include Chance the Rapper, Jamie | | XX and Toro y Moi has bought a critical ear and an RnB shuffle to | | Jamie's playing, and, having spent years exploring intimate, late | | night crooning, Jamie Isaac was ready to introduce a new energy to | | his music. | | | | About 3, Jamie comments: "I'm really trying to make music that people | | can actually move to. I love to dance myself... It was great working | | with someone who'd just say no - if he didn't like my melodies he'd | | push back. Nosaj and I understand each other's music, we have similar | | styles, and we've become really good friends. We're making songs for | | people to have fun to - I'm into going down that route. I love pop | | music...!" | | | | Fans of Jamie's previous emotionally stark content need not worry - | | his swerve into the light has been largely confined to the music, | | whilst the lyrics across the three tracks cover his experience of | | dealing with the pain that followed the recent collapse of his | | long-term relationship. "I love the tongue in cheek-ness of having | | really sad lyrics and putting them to a happy beat." He explains, on | | the theme of the EP, "The lyrics are about what I've been through | | over the last half year - being with somebody for the last five or | | six years and not being with them anymore. I guess all the records I | | do are breakup records, but this is the breakup record." | | | | The shift in sound hasn't lost Jamie Isaac's recognizable and | | charming character however. His notably intimate vocals weave | | entrancing melodies in and out of Nosaj's deep lo-fi textures to | | create an upbeat groove, designed to get people up on their feet. | | Talking about his time in LA and spent with Nosaj Thing, Jamie Isaac | | has a new-found enthusiasm and excitement for the future, commenting | | "I feel reborn. I wanna be a different, happier healthier person in | | every aspect I guess. I've never shown people this side of me". | | | | | | YOU KNOW YOU HAVE TO BUY THIS SHIT IF YOU LIKE IT RIGHT?! | | | | | | . . | | |\/\/| | | |____| | |------------------------------=---=-======-=---=-------------------------| |===/\===============================SOUNDz==========================/\===| '--/__\--------------------------=-2013-2020-=----------------------/__\--'
