Step into the fantasy-sprinkled world of Vanity Fairy and embrace the magic as you get lost in their new track Jungle Jim.
This new track from Vanity is a step into new musical terrain as she explores a more mysterious side to her musical persona.
Jungle Jim is an ethereal experience for the ears and the mind as listeners are taken on an escape from reality.
Vanity can use her voice and the music to take you away as she creates a piece which evokes the blissful feelings and emotions of being on a beach in a beautiful island paradise. As you get taken away by her voice you can almost feel the calming and gentle sea washing its waves over the shore, the salty breeze caressing your skin, and the bright sun warming your face.
Listening to Vanity’s voice on this number is like taking a step back in time to 1978 as her soprano style tones are reminiscent of those of Kate Bush and her iconic Wuthering Heights sound. Just as Bush brought listeners into her hold and enraptured their imaginations back then, Fairy can do the same thing in this day as her gentile softness draws you in.
Jungle Jim is like a journey into a hallucinogenic state in another land and it becomes a question mark as to where the journey is truly taking you. Whilst Vanity lays a beautifully haunting vocal for the hit, it’s also an enchanting mystery as your mind tries to search for the lyrics it can hear, but they are just out of reach. The decision to weave the broken and unintelligible lyrics throughout really helps to enhance the ethereal mystery of the ever-growing loss of connection with reality that this song creates.
The excitement that surrounds this track is palpable as it sounds like it should be a sonic serenity and yet it creates a sense of wonder every time you listen, as there is this moment where you have to choose your path when you hear it. Listeners get to decide whether they feel like their falling into a dreamy paradise of wonder or an unknown jungle of uncertainty and the chance it may change each time you hear it is an intriguing piece of magic created by Vanity Fairy.
