jersey club artist who went viral on tik tok ... it's one of my fav songs of the year tho

she just put out a project called club soda vol 2 which is also great. her productions are very playful but concise. i like "rather be" a lot, you get a feel for the mixture of drama and comedy, but also the ethereal R&B thread that sorta runs through the mix

big fan of “vibe,” she’s got personality to spare, and I dig that her songs are so short and remixable. haven’t checked out the album yet, but i’m dismayed that she turned to tyga for the vibe remix.

the tyga remix had potential but isn’t great.... it sounds good in the context of the album tho

both those tracks are quite cool but they're so ephemeral, i wish they went for longer

love this, cranked up to 160 bpm too :)

i like the ephemeral aspect of it... the way she repeats certain sounds -- seagull squawks, bed squeaks, whip cracks -- has this world building effect that makes the songs feel as if they're passing thru

yeah i dig the briefness, the minimalism & the use of sound effects

Love that the tracks are still the standard Jersey club under 2 min length, love a 20 min album

Yes mates big deckchairs on the bank holiday

It's called JERSEY CLUB, dad. It's some of the best club music from a city superior to ours with deep, intricate melodies that a BAKA GAIJIN like you wouldn't understand.

please get out of my thread w/ your bullshit

brb gonna invent isle of jersey club

just watched that video in the original post and it's so good lol. not a second wasted.

I've never heard of Jersey club... is there a reason tracks in this genre are so short?

the better to flip, reverse, and replay, my dear

i looooove vibe and put it on repeat for a long time, kinda surprised no one's pointed out the midnight cowboy theme interpolation here (or anywhere else tbf)

Club Soda gives me the same feelings as the tierra whack EP: this is a great demo but when are you putting out the album?

Yeah, these are cool-sounding tracks - but they don't really work for me as something i can sit & listen to. Glad to learn about it, tho

I've never heard of Jersey club... is there a reason tracks in this genre are so short?

I think it's because they're not really meant to build over many minutes, they're short rushes of adrenaline and a Jersey club mix runs through way more tracks than a house/techno mix. Also they're usually 140bpm or close to it, so they're fast and easily mixable.

I also wonder if some producers use a template for every track, since I've seen some soundclouds where every track is the exact same length.

If people want to dig deeper, check out DJ Sliink, Uniiqu3 (probably the biggest emissary for Jersey club rn), CalvoMusic, etc.

there are also plenty of jersey club songs between 2-3 minutes, which isn't an irregular song length for any genre (well, it is short for club-oriented electronic music)

i guess i'm inured to the length of the songs here given that pretty much all new rap music is sub 2 minutes as well. a few of my fav recent projects are also in the same 20-25 min range as this album... troye sivan and victoria monet come to mind

OK if it sounds like UNIIQUE3 I'm in.

i think this is sort of the default jersey club thread?
This seems like a good first draft overview.
