London-based Filipino singer-songwriter Jehnniel returns with another indie pop gem, “Heart Beat,” a track that perfectly captures the artist’s talent for crafting emotive and relatable stories. Known for her blend of dreamy melodies and ethereal vocals, Jehnniel steps into the spotlight once again, exploring themes of judgment and prejudice in her latest release.
Growing up in the Philippines, Jehnniel’s life was steeped in music. From her grandparents’ vinyl to her father’s CD collection, the soundtrack of her youth was diverse and influential. Yet, her path took a detour into nursing when she moved to the UK as a single mother, seeking better opportunities for her daughter. Years later, with her daughter grown, Jehnniel rekindled her passion for music, making a bold return with her 2016 self-produced single, "Sea Wolves." This year, she has reemerged stronger than ever, sharing new material that resonates with her deep life experiences.
On “Heart Beat,” Jehnniel collaborates once again with producer Roberto Panovski, crafting a soundscape that marries her emotive songwriting with polished production. The track opens with delicate piano notes fluttering through the air before a crisp beat sets the stage. Jehnniel’s elegant vocals float above the groove, threading poignant lyrics about the pain of being misunderstood. The song's instrumentation paints an atmospheric canvas, juxtaposing airy textures with the sharp pulse of the beat, creating a dynamic alternative pop sound.
With its catchy hooks and heartfelt lyrics, “Heart Beat” is a captivating listen that showcases Jehnniel’s ability to blend her personal narrative into a universal theme. This release marks another step in her artistic journey, and it’s clear she’s just getting started.
