Justin Jay – Time (Original Mix)

by: Michael Cooper Aug 25, 2017

Justin Jay‘s latest single “Time” marks a clever inversion of his sound that is sure to delight fans. The Dirtybird-affiliate maintains the the groovy house vibes that have become his calling card while adding new elements of live instrumentation and his own vocals.

Featuring guitar and live drums — to say nothing of ruminative lyrics that inspire thoughtful introspection without taking away from the undeniably groovy vibe — “Time,” in many ways, represents a logical melding of the disparate elements in Jay’s musical career:

“‘Time’ is a deep intersection between my love for making beats/sounds and my exploration of live music, jamming with my homies. So many parts of the song came about while Benny Bridges, Henry Was and I were hanging out, messing around, just having fun. When my bandmates and I get to perform ‘Time’ live, I feel my inner-8th Grader realizing those childhood ambitions and it makes me really happy.”

That youthful energy is prevalent throughout and will certainly infect those lucky ones out on the dance floor when Jay drops his latest.
