Following his lorded debut single Feel the Smoke Rise, enigmatic producer Jaust takes the next steps towards his album Definites. Wearing an entirely different set of colours, We Need a New Life sees Jaust channel his passion for indie and 80's synth pop. Featuring the vocal talents of James Dean Wells from he Gay Blades, this track will no doubt be finding itself fans in many corners.

Portuguese producer Xinobi runs with the remix baton for a 4/4 makeover. As the lead vocals take front and centre, hooking in from the get go before an infectious bass synth jumps into play. This one will take the doors off a disconcerting disco.

Jaust is a producer writing his own rules.

We Need A New Life  Feat James Dean Wells (Xinobi Remix)

Jaust is a Los Angeles based producer originally from New Zealand. Son of a classical musician he moved to NYC in his 20's to work as a composer. While creating music for film, video games, commercials and art installations the early ideas for an album came together. Incorporating sound design as a musical medium, influences from film and art projects, he began to think about songs in terms of being highly visual pieces. Like short films that take you somewhere using not just the lyrics but creating dramatic and dynamic sonic back drop. Traveling between Berlin, New York and London for various art installations, commercials and films he kept picking up inspiration for a full length album. With the help from local Los Angeles artists lending their voices to his sound ideas an album came into shape. An insight into the influences that make up Jaust include, Comsat Angles, early Shriekback, Propaganda, Grace Jones, Rustie, Apparat, Kid Cudi and the music of David Lynch. If a song can conjure up a world where you can see the surroundings and characters then thats a good song, to create a play in your head is a real treat. Its something you wouldn't have had without that song being in existence.
