Julia Lostrom Drops Self-Care R&B Tune 'Want It All Back'
Creative force Julia Lostrom unveils her enchanting new record ‘Want It All Back’, an introspective tune with sugary vocals and syncopated rhythms.
We know that the grass is always greener on the other side, but what we often forget is that the grass won’t stay green for long if we don’t look after it. ‘Want It All Back’ encapsulates the importance of taking care of yourself even when everything seems to be fine, which stands as a powerful return for Melbourne rising star Julia Lostrom.
On the track Julia said, “I hope people take whatever they need from this song. If it connects to anyone sonically, lyrically or visually I’d feel extremely honoured. I write to connect to myself and process my life and if anyone resonates with it, then that’s amazing.”
Produced by Hamley and Max Glyde, ‘Want It All Back’ is a deconstruction of modern pop with elements of alternative R&B and electronic undertones. Layer upon layer, the track features Julia’s smooth vocals carried by a rich combination of warm synths and melodic basslines, creating a sonic landscape that is hypnotically euphoric. Influenced by the likes of Snoh Allegra, Galimatias and Sabrina Claudio, the inventive sound guided by the mood allows for floating verses and a grounding hook.
“Lockdown really made me reevaluate my music and pushed me to learn more about myself. Going within and re-connecting to my ‘why' helped me find a place with my music I’m truly proud of, and I feel like it represents who I am and where I want to go.”
Julia Lostrom is a Melbourne-based, Zambian-raised and Greek-born singer-songwriter who harnesses her diverse cultural upbringing to inspire her breathy material which flutters between LoFi pop-electronic melodies and slightly left-of-centre R&B.
With a catalogue of quality records slowly building for the prodigiously talented songwriter, expect more unmistakable prowess to come with a greater body of work in the pipeline. Full of fresh ideas and a hunger to create, Julia Lostrom is set to become an unforgettable name that promises the most luxurious songs.
