Release Premiere: Jackson Ramsey - Youngness

Jackson Ramsey is an electronic rock project from Maarten Bayliss (Lil_Babeee_4EVA) and Stellan Nundoo (The 80th Action). They’ve been expanding on the sound from their debut album, Identity Thief, which was recorded on a laptop in lockdown. Moving towards a bigger, live sound, their sophomore album (which drops tomorrow) is an exciting blend of experimental rock, dance, electronica, and psychedelia.

The album is called Youngness and it explores both the playful and painful aspects of adolescence with lyrics that cover various phases of youth, such as pre-school years (Child’s Song), teen angst (Doomin’ and Gloomin’), and more. Musically, Bayliss explained:

“The idea behind the songwriting was to limit everything to synth, sampler, vocals, and drums and find the biggest possible sound while having everything be played live without a click or backing tracks.”

Today we are very excited to be delivering an exclusive premiere of the entire album one day before it’s released everywhere. Enjoy it below and smash that “pre-order” button found in the player!
