London-based Jareth has unveiled her new single “Bit By Bit“, the next cut to be lifted from her debut solo EP. Having previously lent her commanding vocals to collaborations with Rene LaVice, Bashy, Lioness and Ghetts, this year’s release of “Kaleidoscope” and its Hybrid Minds remix. “Bit By Bit” continues to showcase Jareth as a master of her craft, as her voice glides effortlessly above lusciously orchestrated strings. Championed by will.i.am and having penned tracks for Cheryl and Chris Lake, the singer-songwriter is due to release her EP, Moonchild, later this year through new label Moonshot Music.
The new single sees Jareth working with producer Charlie J Perry (Jorja Smith, Maverick Sabre, Samm Henshaw) again and building on the blissfully soulful soundscape that made “Kaleidoscope” so intoxicating. Telling a personal story of having to put ‘yourself back together again in the dark after being broken in the light’, Jareth has found strength in her vulnerability and only truly began to understand herself when she was at her weakest. “We are built up as human beings slowly over time, bit by bit. However we can be broken down very quickly when studied closely. Moral of the story? Keep mental notes because it is easier to rebuild when you have instructions handy.” With Jareth’s expressive vocal at the core of the track, mirrored by delicate piano and washes of cinematic strings, ‘Bit By Bit’ is undoubtedly a standout from the forthcoming EP and really celebrates her unique talent.
