The unique sound-design and evocative pitched vocals of Simon Jaglom meet with a quickly catchy hook, as LIFELINE tops the modern collection for an impassioned earworm that’s both inspiring and uplifting.
Vocally distinct but also built around a unique fusion of trap-style rhythms and dream-wave production, LIFELINE blends elements of old-school dance and emo rap, across a landscape of lyrical reflections that are piercingly honest.
It’s a song that refreshingly digs into the complex emotions of modern life, and does so with a simple but striking tune, which naturally fuses both the melancholy of the topic and the optimism in its resolve and ultimate gratitude.
Having found a vocal sound both unique and still passionate, Simon Jaglom celebrates his appreciation for another, and elevates a rapidly growing repertoire by way of an immersive to euphoric soundscape and song that’s quick to leave its mark. That balancing between the deeply vulnerable and the boldly energising is key to letting LIFELINE connect and keep listeners coming back for more.
It’s a stand-out sound for this genre and scene right now, and speaks volumes on behalf of the realism and heart that rings loud throughout the Simon Jaglom catalogue.
Noting tens of thousands of listeners across a multitude of original tracks, Jaglom has built a career around this delicate intertwining of fearlessly genuine reflections and fully-loaded yet light and ethereal productions.
Consider CHRYSANTHEMUMS, the style equally recognisable, but a whole new emotional journey. Then underneath this, we get a more clean-cut rap style and sometimes acoustic backdrop throughout his history – Just Saying and Loyal hitting with impact in a whole other way, but the central emotional purity of the writing still standing tall.
Once Jaglom settled upon this fusion of effects for recent tracks like LIFELINE, but maintained that sense of purpose in both story and set-up, the music began to take on a life of its own, and the results are undeniable.
