Norwegian electronic producer Jerry Folk, known for his debut album Dotted Red with side project FENGSEL, unveiled his latest single, ‘Heart’ on April 5th, 2024, via Folkestad Recordings. Known for remixing artists like Billie Eilish and producing for names like Alina Baraz, he’s earned praise from various publications and BBC Radio 6’s Tom Ravenscroft. With over 350 million streams, he’s toured the US, opened for Odesza, and played at Coachella. Influenced by James Blake and others, his new release appeals to fans of PinkPantheress, James Blake, and Sam Gellaitry.
Influenced by the energetic vibes of early 2000s UK club music and enhanced by the fusion of powerful drum beats and smooth, seductive R&B vocals from Australian talent Chloe Kae, ‘Heart’ emerges as a song that effortlessly blends nostalgia with dance-floor appeal. Skillfully integrated vocal snippets complement Chloe Kae’s emotive singing, while a melodic synth weaves its way through the track, juxtaposed by a raw breakbeat that propels the listener into a captivating trance-like state.
Jerry Folk revealed: “I made ‘Heart’ last year in a period where I was making a lot of melancolic dance music. It’s the second single of my upcoming EP which is Inspired by early 2000s electronic music from the uk that mixes club music and r&b vocals. I sent the track to Chloe Kae from the australian duo “Kllo” and she sent me back some really beautiful vocals to go with it. The goal was to make something melancholic but hopeful.”
