859) Big Wild - Touch

Oregon-based, Massachusetts-born Jackson Stell started his music career at age 14 as J Beatz, a hip-hop beat producer. Nowadays, at 30, he is an established singer-songwriter and producer, and his songs have been garnering positive reviews left and right. This single from him was written pre-pandemic but has inevitably become an anthem for long-distance lovers worldwide. Originally, it was based around the yearning Stell felt when going on tours for months and having to be away from his girlfriend. "I can't claim any foresight, but the feeling of deep longing and desire is universal", he told Shore Fire Media. "It's interesting because I was writing from a personal place but this theme is something we're feeling on a societal level right now. People need connection." Critics have praised the piece for being "exotic" and "infectious" and for its unforgettable funky quality. Complete with a stylish, Western-style lyric video, it is a timeless treasure.
