Drawing us in with a cerebral, rising synth melody, expanding into a warm and dimensional pulsating energy, JULES DAVIDSON opens the Extended Mix of Sparks Can Fly with philosophical and metaphorical prose as she sings, “If the next day didn’t come, and we came undone, if the future was a dream, places never seen….”
Fans of Sophie Ellis Bextor and Kylie Minogue will definitely be able to connect with what JULES DAVIDSON is creating – the production is flawless, and we love her British accent as she shares her mind bending dance-pop universe with us.
There is an avant-garde and cinematic allure to what manifests. Jules creates with poetic prowess and the soundscape is perfect for a range of sync deals – perhaps a montage scene from a TV show like The Girlfriend on Amazon Prime or even a show like Heartstopper on Netflix.
Speaking on the intentional depth of the release, Jules confesses, “Sparks Can Fly depicts the chemistry between two people who aren’t sure if they should act on that feeling. It was inspired by talking to someone about how often in life we think too far ahead rather than living in the moment. In this track the narrator is pondering the dilemma of whether they should move forward as told in the lyrics ‘If the future was a dream, made of places never seen, would we turn away…'”
We love the wisdom that JULES DAVIDSON shares with her dancefloor-friendly release. The extended outro is sublime. We connect with how the song celebrates living in the present whilst exploring the fear of the future.
JULES DAVIDSON is a London-based singer-songwriter turned EDM artist. She has collaborated with producer Richard Bignell at Area 18 Studios to craft this mesmerizing release. Blending her acoustic roots and heartfelt lyrics with electronic beats, she delivers a consciously astute energy that is both uplifting and deeply emotional. Her influences included Röyksopp, London Grammar, and Eli & Fur, which definitely shine through in the song’s fusion of lush vocals and atmospheric production.
Naturally, we are in awe, and have added Sparks Can Fly to our New Music Spotlight playlist, and our TIMELESS playlist, whilst we continue to stream JULES DAVIDSON‘s growing discography, and anticipate future releases from the star.
