It’s not easy to be an innovative and relevant force in pop music nowadays. An overcrowded and chaotic scene, its complexity is only matched by the amount of talent in it. Julo somehow manages to scramble such an environment, emerging as a force for good, an elegant, measured songwriter with incredible vocal qualities and a poignant flair.
‘Power Away’ is Julo’s latest effort, a nuanced and evocative slice of pop extravaganza. Steeped in contemporary production sentiment, the track moves with confidence and charisma over electro-pop and leftfield EDM stylings. The Brooklyn-based artist’s luscious vocal tone completely crowns the song, giving it a relatable outlook and a melodious livery.
Lyrically, the record is steeped in self-reflection and mental health themes, shining a light on the personal struggle that often emerges when dealing with our harsh reality. As Julo explains: “I wrote this song about overcoming my lowest state of depression and OCD. It illustrates the notion that we sometimes create our own cage within our mind that we entrap ourselves in”.
