Deja Renee has produced something special with Falling (Lose My Mind) and it is a song that sticks with you long after it’s over. The way the San Diego singer-songwriter combines Pop and R&B is very personal and accessible. It’s an honest and understatedly graceful assessment of the emotional tumult of heartbreak and self discovery.
The song has an instant impact from the opening bars. The tender guitar lines, the airy production and the soft rhythms set a beautiful tone. However, it is Deja’s voice which propels all of this. She brings her classical and jazz roots with every note, allowing for such control and precision without compromising on that warmth and heartfelt nature.
The progression from the restrained verses to the strong chorus has created strong emotional energy to the song. The layered harmonies and evocation of texture add depth at just the right moments, and Olivier Bassil’s production keeps the emotion top of mind throughout.
The most memorable is when everything fades away and Deja’s voice becomes all alone at the end. It’s raw, exposed and beautiful to say the least. The confident and elegant Falling (Lose My Mind) is a sign of an artist who has so far just begun.
