Jordan Fox’s EBENEZER is the most in-vogue alt-electronica odyssey you’ll ever hear –

Following a prelude which sits between the score to a Tarantino flick and the aural aesthetics of histrionic theatre, EBENEZER by JORDAN FOX keeps the juxtapositions equally avant-garde within its adrenalised alt-electronica mix. Hints of Eastern rhythm drift through frenetic synth pop against dreamy diaphanous motifs, allowing the release to breathe and ebb under the hypnotically lush vocals.

After the intro, the divide between your consciousness and the ingenious, syncopated euphonic rushes of ecstasy in EBENEZER is practically a façade of a veil. The bass-heavy low end and percussion lock into your nervous system, while lighter, transcendent tones surrounding his choir-esque harmonic stretches give your soul freedom to explore new territory, one marked in awe for what JORDAN FOX brings to the airwaves through infinite imagination and genre-mashing syntheses of sound.

The Los Angeles-based media composer, producer and songwriter folds years of fashion-world composition into a debut single that wrestles with the fear of devoting your life to something while watching love, milestones and meaning slip past unnoticed. With electronic and orchestral textures expanding around his voice, plus a Shauna Presto-directed video featuring choreography for eight dancers, EBENEZER feels built as a full sensory event. The vocal performance alone is enough to put him on the proverbial map. Hopefully, this in-vogue odyssey isn’t too cerebral to go viral.

EBENEZER is now available to stream on all major platforms, including Spotify.
