Brussels-based artist senna JMB offers a glimpse into his unique musical world, blending postpunk, IDM-influenced electronics, experimental pop, and cloud rap. Collaborating with his favorite producer Kiche, senna JMB’s music encapsulates a fusion of flamboyance and somber tones, enigmatic and direct expressions.
His latest single, “Lotus,” sets the stage for his debut album, “Purity,” scheduled for release on February 2, 2024, across all streaming platforms. “Lotus” is a lively and carefree yet somewhat melancholic piece that showcases senna JMB’s natural musical prowess. The song weaves vocals, guitar, beats, synths, and samples into a captivating cloud rap composition.
With a focus on a persona that symbolizes failure due to hubris, the song explores the exaggerated image of an artist grappling with this concept. The chorus evolved organically, complementing the guitar lines and synths, while the bridge, additional sounds, and vocals enhance the overall edgy vibe. “Lotus” stands out as one of senna JMB’s most compelling tracks from the upcoming album.
Describing the track, senna JMB states, “a hybris-driven crash, a phantasized hyperbole of artistry.”
