By keeping his identity hidden behind closed doors, the anonymous DJ/artist/producer juuku has been able to shape a public persona that has effectively become much larger than its creator. The reason being that he’s not afraid to broadcast his own battle with depression, in turn becoming a source of respite for those also trudging through the treacherous waters of mental health. While his identity may not be known, his music is starting to resonate with a lot more people as the project evolves. His latest drop “save u” featuring vocalist Ryan Nealon might be his best work to date.
Leaning more into the commercial-sounding EDM space, thanks to the powerful hook and generally radio-ready vibe, this song is special and likely will make some waves in the EDM market across the globe. When speaking on the collaboration, juuku noted “[this track] is a letter to myself, on one of my darkest days of depression—feels like I’ve been going through that a lot these days. I wanted to paint a picture of how dark it’s gotten and how much weight I’ve been feeling lately. But I also wanted to remind myself how far I’ve gotten and that I’m the only one that can bring me out of this darkness.”
