The electropop duo known
as Maybesoon has released their latest official video, “Everfall.”
It has been proudly published as an independent release without the
involvement of the corporate music industry on the Hill Street
Records record label. A joint effort exhibiting drama, songwriting,
stage direction and precise studio production, “Everfall”
presents Maybesoon as a visual music project fans of any art form can
appreciate. See below for link to “Everfall,” the official video.
Maybesoon (stylized
maybesoon) are recording/visual artist Jayme Woj and producer Alan
Bukowiecki. They cite as main musical influences Bjork, Pet Shop
Boys, Robyn, Radiohead, Erasure, and Swedish artist Jonna Lee.
Maybesoon's own sound on “Everfall” takes elements from each of
these and adds many fresh and unique elements for a melange all their
own.
The official video for
“Everfall” has a coherent character from start to finish
exhibiting all the duo's talents – which is to say, there's a lot
of art packed in there.
“We are currently
creating a series of singles and music videos that fuse electronic
music with body paint and new emerging technologies to give our fans
unique audiovisual experiences,” write Maybesoon in their current
official bio.
This amalgam of artistry
makes plenty of sense, considering the pedigree of the musicians. Woj
and Bukowiecki both come from musical theater, with the former
performing as a Hollywood actor, singer, visual artist and stunt
performer, the latter as a Broadway musician, conductor and composer.
Asked to describe the
overall meaning of “Everfall,” Maybesoon write, “Everfall was
written during a time when frontman Jayme Woj experienced the loss of
multiple family members and close friends in quick succession. He
wrote the lyrics about the struggles those closest to him were
experiencing as they were all forced to navigate and cope with the
loss of their loved ones.”
“Writing the
lyrics was really my way of trying to make sense of all the different
ways people around me were processing their grief,” says Woj. “I
never intended to actually put it to music. A few months later … I
played a character who was helping his lover move through the stages
of grief. Working on the film was a very healing experience for me …
After we finished the film I wanted to honor both the loved ones I
lost and the character I played who helped me cope, so Alan and I put
the lyrics to music.”

“Reverie,” also on Hill Street. It appeared in summer 2019.

Maybesoon on the Hill Street Records label is available from over 600
quality digital music stores online worldwide now. Get in early,
electropop fans.
