premiere: electro soul mastermind abslm vltn’s “jungle” is candy for your ears

Here’s something sweet for your ears. Mercurial alt soul singer ABSLM VLTN makes dreamy alt soul and electronica that swirls with retro vibes. His last single “LOVE” echoed back to some classic 80’s electro funk and pop with it’s massive drums and new romantic guitar. “Jungle” strips the sound back to a rhodes and bass beneath ABSLM VLTN’s entrancing baritone calling back more to the 70’s than anything. The song is hooks all the way down, layering sound on sound to tease an explosion that never comes. Stream it exclusively here and melt into the sound.

ABSLM VLTN explains:

“The song is about the raw, unpredictability of a new relationship and uses the imagery of the jungle as a metaphor for the fear of the unknown. It lays bare the struggle of a primitive romance, whose subject battles through a Jungle of vulnerability and emotional survival. The theme helped inform my production process, I went into it as organically as possible and ended up with this wonky sounding track that in some parts is quite sparse and other parts high energy.”
