Dublin-based singer-songwriter Nissu is steadily gaining fame for crafting brilliant pop ballads, ripe with lush textures, ear-catching hooks, and heartfelt themes. The Brazilian artist’s debut EP “Memories” presents six uplifting, vibrant soundscapes, each narrating deeply personal and emotionally resonant stories about life, love, friendship, and resilience.
Each track feels like a diary entry adorned in melodies, transporting you into the ephemeral and euphoric world of memories. The sonic atmospheres feature prismatic synths, upbeat rhythms, and unforgettable vocal tunes that are replay-inducing. Masterfully produced by the renowned Trey Vittetoe (Miley Cyrus, Katy Perry), this EP dazzles with an addictive chart-topping, classic pop feel.
The opening track “U” introduces Nissu’s radiant and rich pop atmospheres, especially its synth-driven instrumentation fueled by pumping beats and velvety vocals. Reflecting on an old romance with adoration and appreciation instead of the usual mournful melancholy, this song establishes Nissu’s flair for putting a positive, uplifting spin on life experiences. Throughout the EP, Nissu’s ability of translating complex feelings into bouncy, light atmospheres shines through.
In songs like “Connection,” the titular track “Memories,” and “In My Heart” there is an understated quality of introspection that is simple yet stirring. The words, uncomplicated and honest, reach for the heart, lending a meaningful and memorable listening experience. Offering more than just relatability, each song also brings an irresistibly groovy and peppy sound. The exuberant electronic production injects you with a sense of liberating, eruptive energy that lights up your spirit. Each track is meticulously balanced—minimal, slow passages evoke reflection and resonance while abundant, pulsing sections get you dancing and singing along—stitching together highs and lows, mirroring life’s ebb and flow.
The “Memories” EP brings together songs, both from Nissu’s past and present, offering a collection of records that are testament to Nissu’s evolving artistry and promising talents. The musical creativity and talent showcased in “Memories” is distinctive and compelling, making Nissu a pop force to watch out for. Listen to the debut EP “Memories” here!
