The story of Neon Jungle
Why we feature this artist
The loud introduction leaves room for another mood
Neon Jungle’s early singles make a forceful entrance, using electronic weight, sharply timed vocal phrases and a group performance designed to reach the chorus quickly. The British quartet’s short catalogue also contains a more exposed side. That contrast gives the one-album chapter more musical shape than the first high-energy impression might suggest.
Trouble and Braveheart set the pace
Trouble in 2013 introduced Jess, Asami, Shereen and Amira within an outgoing dance-pop frame. Braveheart in 2014 sharpened the electronic setting, with the voice and instrumental hook taking turns to supply the central push. Welcome to the Jungle followed as another single, making the rhythmic scale part of the group’s initial identity.
These records allow vocal differences to function inside an especially busy production. A short entrance or a change of delivery can provide the variation that a longer solo line might supply in a less densely arranged song. The group’s energy depends on those quick exchanges as much as the weight of the beat.
Louder changes the expectation before the album arrives
Louder in 2014 deliberately introduced a slower setting. In their original comments accompanying the release, the group described wanting to surprise listeners who expected another dance track while retaining the force of the performance. The debut album Welcome to the Jungle gathers that contrast into a fuller sequence. It is a useful way to hear the project: several kinds of vocal pressure exist within the same concise chapter. The group announced in 2015 that its members would continue individually, leaving the album and singles as the central shared recording document. The short duration does not remove the differences between the songs. Trouble and Braveheart supply the immediate physical invitation, while Louder reveals how the voices behave when the arrangement gives them more exposed melodic space.
