Picking up where last year’s soulful Lay Down left off is Where Are You Now, a new release from American Grammy-nominated singer-songwriter JES on Intonenation Records. This latest chapter is part of a collection of new songs that will introduce fans to another side of her artistry.

Where Are You Now draws on the complexity of modern life and relationships and lifestyles, where every statement has become a question, and nothing can be assumed. Driven by an impassioned vocal performance and a haunting backing vocal theme, the song brings a liberating depth and understanding to a situation we all know only too well. From the hypnotic guitars to the intensely layered backgrounds, Where Are You Now connects and delivers a message of dark intentions which ultimately lead to empowerment and redemption.

“I feel like you really get a taste of where my songs come from with this new collection. I have come full circle, back to when I was first inspired to sing and write music” JES said. “The pandemic gave me a chance to stop and feel more deeply than ever. With all the changes we were going through, I wanted to write something uplifting and hopeful about the pressures of modern life in our relationships. I started to reconnect with music and my writing from a more objective place. These songs just started to come to me from a place of new clarity.”

Add Where Are You Now to your morning motivation playlists. Your best life starts here.

JES, who has been the name to know for fans of authentic dance music delivers one more reason to keep saying her name. From the first note, the nocturnal theme of “We Belong To The Night” (via esteemed Dutch label Magik Muzik) is unmistakable. JES’ unique tone and delivery dominates the story and leads like a light in the dark from beginning to end. The sound is both deeply electronic and undeniably organic, deconstructing formulas and framing JES’ unique ear for melody against a backdrop of doubtless blissed-out acceptance.
Speaking of the song JES says “Belong has been a part of a deep transitional period for me. Music has always been my heart, so it’s only natural that my re-invention starts there. I sometimes find myself pushing, struggling to make my world be the way I want it to be. This song is all about the surrender and security of finding that safe zone where you can stop for a moment and drift your surroundings. I wanted to share it at the end of the summer, as one thing comes to end there’s a chance for a new beginning, a new me, a new us.”

“We Belong To The Night” is many things at the same time. Smooth and gritty, sweet and salty, even subtle and harsh. So hit the reset button with JES, and let this wall of auditory emotion take you back to where you belong.

Markus Schulz & JES “Calling For Love” Out Now!

June 6, 2018

Calling For Love, JES, Markus Schulz, music video, new release, release, single release, track

Markus x JES is the equation, and if you’re wondering how that’s never have happened before, well the
queue forms to the left! Analysis is now academic as two of trance’s greats bridge the studio/song gap with the
soul-stirringly moving ‘Calling For Love’.

In its all-day-play radio version, first contact with ‘Calling’ came through April’s interlinked ‘In Bloom EP’ and
GDJB show. For it’s standalone release, Markus has club-equipped the Extended Mix with all the necessaries to
see it reign equally at night. Tapping the tempo gas, ‘Calling’s production’s been galvanised by hardier drums,
hastening snares, percussive march and – in its latter stages – synth-radiance. By turns strong, optimistic, defiant, wrought and lamenting, JES’ song is a swirl of contending emotions, lyrically & vocally encapsulating her theme.

‘Calling For Love’s official video will shortly join fellow ‘In Bloom’ single ‘Safe From Harm’s (which passed the 1
million YouTube views marker last week) online. Meantime, you can stream/purchase the Extended Mix of
‘Calling For Love’ here: http://markusschulz.choons.at/callingforlove

Out Now: JES & Game Chasers “Carry Me Away”

April 29, 2017

Carry Me Away, game chasers, JES, Markus Schulz, new release

JES’ new single with the Game Chasers “Carry Me Away” hits all digital portals today exclusively through Black Hole Recordings / Magik Muzik. The follow up to her massive collaboration “Fall Into You” with Cosmic Gate promises to deliver in a big way for both radio and club audiences with a package featuring a pop influenced original mix, a deep house mix and a Markus Schulz trance remix.

The original mix blends an immersive deep house groove with sublime vocals and a sultry saxophone hook for a radio friendly package. Letting the strength of the song lead, the original mix plays on the emotive aspects of JES’ vocals and a rich fusion of genres to bring some fresh energy to the radio format.

The Deeper Mood Mix is the Game Chasers own house rework which takes us straight to the terrace. Raising the intensity to a fever pitch and holding us there for the duration, the Game Chasers hit the day club bulls eye with a straight aiming mix that puts the mesmerizing vocal in the spotlight.

Rounding out the package is a truly uplifting trance remix from the unicorn slayer himself, Markus Schulz. On hearing the original mix Markus immediately requested the vocals to make his own mix. It seems his reaction was spot on with the resulting remix translating the song perfectly into the big room without surrendering any of it’s authenticity.

In a world where everyone can seem overwhelmed, sometimes you need to find the time to kick back and relax, and say “Carry Me Away.”

Two Souls OUT NOW!

January 12, 2015

JES, new release, two souls

“Two Souls” draws on all those chance meetings and near misses that happen to us all. I was inspired by those inexplicable connections that you often feel but don’t know why. Sometimes it’s easy to feel isolated and when we do we’re usually not as alone as we think. I wanted to write a song for those people. Something that would help them find their way home. XO JES

Early Support by Above And Beyond (Group Therapy) & Ferry Corsten (Corsten’s Countdown).
