Jym Persaud Releases a Lush New Single


A new single release from Jym Persaud delivers a vast and engulfing atmosphere that feels bright and colorful yet distant and dreamlike as guitars and vocals are dripping with reverb effect, letting the soundscape float around in the air that surrounds you.


"Fever Dream" is a beautiful song with a lush aesthetic. There are layers of guitars, percussion, and more, all coming together and creating this atmosphere that you end up falling right into.


The beauty of it all is that you were able to float alongside this is static, and it pulls you away from wherever you are and whatever you're doing and puts you in this other place for a chunk of time, which I found refreshing.


This song has thick layers of texture, and it's all orchestrated extremely well.


One of the things I love about this track is the rhythm of the percussion. The drum beat has a unique time signature, which gives the song a very particular but forward-moving flow.


It is danceable. There is a great rhythm to it, and it's quite infectious, but overall, this song has such a spaciousness to it.


The vocal performance is brilliant simply because there are these layers of harmonies throughout almost the entire song, and they come through with a certain kind of heart and power behind them as well.


The whole thing has a passion, from the guitar work to the vocals and everything else in between. This all has a lot of personality and character, which is one of the things you end up getting attached to in the first place.


You can tell there's a lot of attention to detail during the creation of this track because of all those layers and textures coming together, but it never loses that personality, no matter what.


One of the things that I have to talk about is the mix of this track. I don't always touch on the mixes of tracks, but here it's so important because, to get the right aesthetic,


This track whisks you up and takes you away to a different place. It's fluid and expansive, which is something that adding certain elements into the mix really helps push.


I'm not sure if Jym mixed the track himself, but I can tell you whoever did completely understood the mission.


There are overlapping lead guitar sections that are also drenched in reverb but add a new depth to the song at times, bringing in that brightness and color I mentioned earlier. The song is spirited and has a certain vivaciousness to it but it's not over the top. It never takes away from the dreaminess of it all. The song has a silky overtone, but it's still coated in pop.


Another thing I adore about the way this song is put together as it's built. It builds into this sort of climatic element towards the end of the song and by the time you get to that final chorus, it's just massive.


The Sonic presence of this track is outstanding. It helps deliver that aesthetic and atmosphere perfectly so that everything comes through with a certain level of intensity.


You can certainly tell this track came from someplace genuine. The mood and emotion is all right there in the music.


Some people might call this contemporary pop, while others might note that it brings elements of post-punk into the mix at times. You can call it what you will, but this is a song that has such a wonderful way of wrapping itself around you and keeping you right where it wants to.


Its cinematic post-rock beauty is in every element of the sound that you hear.


This is the type of song you listen to with headphones on because then you can soak it all in properly.


As I mentioned before, there are a lot of layers and textures going on. There are notes and sounds that float through the song's ether, and to pick up on all of that, along with the general depth of this song, listening with headphones is one of the best ways to do it, hands down.


There's something strangely nostalgic about this song. 


Take a deep dive into this track as soon as you can and see how it affects you.


Remember where you heard it first.
