Dallas, Texas-raised June Marieezy, aka ((( O ))), has vowed to release “moon-drop creations” every full moon, and 12-track albums for the next 12 years at the end of each lunar cycle, which take the form of blissful and philosophical R&B. June re-discovered her spirituality, life’s simplicities and the rich tapestry of Filipino culture when she moved there when she was 15 which has heavily inspired her sound. (((1))) is the debut album from June, 12 tracks long just like she promised. The 4^thtrack on the album. ‘Shuh Shuh’. is a lush neo-soul journey along a calm stream. Complex but relaxed piano chords are accompanied by gushing water, pinned down by a basic hip-hop beat, allowing the rising bubble synth sounds and an acoustic guitar line to ascend. The thumb piano sounds like raindrops scattered over the track. June’s vocals are undeniably moreish and tranquil like a summer breeze, and soulful in the most humble of ways, it’ll give you goose bumps, for sure. It’s said that the artist’s proceeds from her project are going towards preserving a rainforest in the Phillipines, her parents' homeland. - Ellie Rose Davies
