Upcoming artist Jay Wires is a New York City-based synthesist who dials up catchy electropop infused with human emotion synthpop art with a human heart. Originally inspired by bands like Depeche Mode, Erasure, New Order, and Pet Shop Boys, Jay Wires has been making electronic music since acquiring his first synthesizer while in his early teens. By day, Jay works for a well-known vintage synth dealer, selling the finest electronic musical instruments ever made to many of the world’s most discerning electronic musicians. Now it’s finally time to start releasing his own music. “For many years I’ve been systematically testing and playing the most incredible gear,” says Jay. “This has given me a great understanding of sound synthesis, so dialing up unique soundscapes from scratch is second nature to me. This skill has been invaluable to me as an electronic music maker, but the song always comes first.” Jay Wires will begin releasing songs from his debut EP, ‘Kaboom!’, in August 2022, through Yes Trigger Music. Two years in the making, the EP contains four songs freighted with intense emotion and epic electronic arrangements. ‘Kaboom!’ is an expression of what Jay calls “electro-pop therapy” and was inspired by a painful break-up during the isolation and loneliness of COVID lockdown. With the release of his newest single “Candle In The Night”, he presents a captivating sound that will definitely grasp your ears. Beginning with dreamy instrumentation leading onto his sweet and soft vocals he completes the song entirely. Explaining the track a bit further it’s about being there for your partner to guide them through the hard times we sometimes experience in life. To the vocals and production, this single will surely have you vibing and possibly relating to the lyrics. It would be just great for a late-night drive or a walk down the beach after dawn.
