Independent, High-Concept Artist- JUPITER’S KISS delivers his latest release Maiden Voyage, a track body of work that explores love, danger, heartbreak and self-discovery. The production style is a blend of dreamy Synth Pop, RnB, and Dance music underpinned by expressive melodic performances and vivid lyrics.

 

“MAIDEN VOYAGE” is a pop/dance-infused track that is as dynamic as they come. From the atmospheric textures, barebones percussion-driven grooves and thick basslines, JUPITER’S KISS takes us on an epic journey of a man who is soul-searching and looking for answers in the world and beyond. Lines like “I wanted adventure, I went looking for it/ In search of the treasure on a maiden voyage/Can barely remember if I had enjoyed it/ There ain’t nothing better than a maiden voyage”, he paints a vivid picture of awe and wonder. Overall the title track sets the tone with its eclectic sound and catchy. melodies

“PANAMA” starts off with a dark ominous synth bass and sparse drum groove. JUPITER’S KISS delivers his verse with a whispered sultry tone underpinned by an escapade involving him and an unknown associate as they move through the starry nights of a foreign land. This is followed by the first instrumental track “DAYLIGHT” which changes the tone completely with its sombre and somewhat introspective production. The electric guitars set things off between the solemn piano riffs that come into play and drive the track with soft drums. New elements ranging from atmospheric pads and strings also appear in the middle section giving it a medley type of vibe.

“CASSANDRA” is a love-pop ballad made up of dreamy and sublime textures underpinned by  JUPITER’S KISS’s soft melodic performance and heartwarming songwriting. Overall vibe has a retro synth-pop feel. “WRECKAGE” is a solemn ode to fleeting love and good memories of the past. The production is moody, ethereal and minimalistic allowing JUPITER’S KISS’ vocals to stand out. His subtle use of parallel effects makes it airy and alluring as well.

 

The project closes out with the experimental  “MESSAGE” and futuristic pop vibes of “OPENTHESKY”. Both tracks serve as closure tracks to wrap the adventure with the former offering a heartfelt message of starting over and the latter taking the protagonist into the future where good things may come

Overall, the project is cohesive in terms of storytelling and soundscape and in just 26 minutes, manages to take listeners through the ups and downs of life, love and self-discovery.
