Words: Ellie Ward
Soulful voiced, Berlin-based Australian producer Jackson Dyer precedes his debut album ‘Inlet’ due later this year, with the release of 'Paper Lanterns’.
Channelling his soothing, laid-back chillwave aesthetic, ‘Paper Lanterns' has a rich and atmospheric production which allows swooning vocals to ride over crooning guitars and softened beats to deliver this heartfelt and moving new release.
“’Paper Lanterns’ is a song centred around the notion of moving on and focusing on the positivity and hope that can be found in change," he says. "For the majority of the writing and producing period, I was stationed in a small, coastal town on the east coast of Australia. I‘d often drive to the next major town and I think that the open expanses had a big effect on the song’s energy. Turning up my favourite music, with the windows down and rolling past the landscape was something that I relished and I think a little bit of that euphoria and freedom is expressed in ‘Paper Lanterns’.”
