Born With Heartbreak
Julie Pavon - Born With Heartbreak Album is out now.
“A raw, uncompromising force”: Julie Pavon conducts grand electronic melodrama on debut album Born With Heartbreak
In the past five years since her debut single ‘Herd Animals’, the Danish-Honduran singer and electronic artist has been quietly stirring in the waters of the Copenhagen underground, now and then peaking her head into the spotlight with an unexpected single drop or a “somatically unforgettable” (Soundvenue) live performance.
Early tracks ‘Jealous’, ‘Herd Animals’ and ‘Don’t Call Me Out’ quickly carved out a space for her distinct style, a “combustible blend of impassioned lyrics and club-geared beats” (DJ Mag). Meanwhile Pavon had her focus on exploring new styles and sounds, fresh ways expressing what she is primarily interested in: the dual effects of exhilaration and distress fundamental to being young at this moment.
Now, with her first full-length project, Pavon accelerates the darkness, unveiling a grand electro-tragedy of an album. Born With Heartbreak is intense, anxious and existential, with Pavon’s pathos-saturated vocals racing through an array of style references.
Pavon herself describes the album as “a raw, immediate and uncompromising force.”
On the artistic ambition behind the album, she explains: “I want to capture moments of pure and unrestrained emotion. I’m very drawn to duality and contrasts in my artistic process, as my life is so full of it. Ecstasy and anxiety. Crying out freely. Being myself unapologetically and feeling the strength in that.”
Pavon has collaborated with producer Oliver Orssten to create the shapeshifting sound of the album. House music luminary Musumeci also features twice on the album (‘Can’t Stop Crying’, ‘Love How You Dance’), while Gabriel Gifford is behind the production of ‘Passenger’.
Born With Heartbreak will be released September 19th on Music For Dreams.
