Listen :: It's 'Essentially' Japanese Breakfast

Words: Sam Geary 

Japanese Breakfast, aka Michelle Zauner, has returnrd today with a new single called 'Essentially'.

The track originally formed part of a collection recorded for W Records, the boutique record label launched by W Hotels in 2018, and was recorded in the W Sound Suite in Bali.

“I was originally going to record a different song but decided to write something on the fly once I arrived in Bali,” says Zauner. “I like the challenge of writing and arranging quickly and intuitively sometimes, and I had just bought a Native Instruments Maschine and wanted to explore a lot of the sample libraries it came with and work on the synths that were at the studio. It was a very idyllic place to work.”
