Coming out of Detroit is Jessie Berkshires, and just a week ago saw the singer-songwriter release her new single, "Don't Let Me Down". The new single is her fourth single of the year,and for me it's a great tune for Jessie to close out 2024 with.
Dreamy and atmospheric alt-pop.
"Don't Let Me Down" opens up with a very alt-pop sound with simplistic sounds coming from the keyboards and a slightly scattered drumbeat being added to the mix. Vocally it's dreamy with elements similar to that of WET and The XX in terms of how stripped back it feels in places.
The chorus is my personal highlight of the single with plenty of airy sounds bouncing off each other to give you a smorgasbord of dream-pop sounds. Speaking about the track Jessie mentions - " ... [the single is] an emotional electro-pop track exploring the fear of heartbreak and longing for love."
