In an early interview with the Independent, Jamie Isaac brought to light the fact that his 2018 album, ‘Idler’, didn’t get the reaction he was expecting whilst performing it.

“When I was touring Couch Baby, I was looking at the people in the crowd and was like, “why aren’t you dancing?” But then I realised I wasn’t writing music for people to dance to”

The artist’s intention is clear and finally caught wind in his latest effort, a collaborative EP with Los Angeles based producer Nosaj Thing, called ‘3’. The project is full of minimal and evocative yet detailed production made out of hazy vocal chops, house inspired drums and contemplative, gloomy synth lines that merge with Isaac’s fuzzy vocals and graceful songwriting. 

Is melancholy the dawn of movement?
