Continuing to take the electronic music scene by storm and push the boundaries with every release, the rising producer, singer, songwriter and live performer, juuku has released yet another dreamy yet electric soundscape.
For the first minute of new single ‘Alive Again’, the track is a piece of ambient and minimalist electronica that blends the continuous combination of chimes and strings. Then as the song begins to progress, you’re struck with a rapid drum build up and drop that hits with an intense delivery of static synths and chimes.
Throughout the song, you’re taken back and forth between a state of nostalgic reminiscence and controlled chaos.
Juuku truly has a way of transporting listeners into another dimension through his uniquely refined and reminiscent sound design. The song not only is fun and up-beat but has a deeper meaning. According to juuku, “Alive Again” was created during a dark time filled with crippling anxiety. Through the ashes, however, juuku was able to find hope in a dark place…

“this song was the first song i made after going through crippling anxiety and depression late last year. i felt so numb to things and felt like a shell of myself during that time, but there was this one glimmer of hope that i could never describe pulling me back into who i felt i lost. ‘alive again’ reminds me that no matter how long you think you’ve left something, there is a glimmer of hope deep inside – waiting to be awakened again.”
