Jacob Salmon makes a connection / House of Cards (feat. Justis Chanell)

The mid-tempo track, House of Cards, from Danish R&B/soul/hip-hop producer Jacob Salmon is an excellent way to introduce yourself to his music. This head-nodding delight also showcases US artist Justis Chanell‘s vocal talents.

Incredibly Chanell and Salmon have never met in person, which is becoming increasingly common in todays’ music industry. Through their shared passion for soulful, funky music with a message, their musical connection transcended borders and delivered a splendid tune.

House of Cards is a creamy smooth, and summery track from his recently released 4-track EP Transition to Stormy Weather. It quickly grabs your attention. Guided by Justis Chanell’s soulful lyrics on the theme of fragility of ones dreams, it keeps you hooked until the last note. In addition to its excellent production, the single’s retro cover design is equally appealing to those, like us, who adore album art.

A ‘house of cards’ typically has a shaky structure, but this is as solid a soul tune as you’ll hear this year. Deal us in for more!
