Spirit On Mine brings you into another world. My favorite part about this song is you don’t know where it’s going, and when it hits, it feels like a whimsical release. It makes you feel free. – Venessa Michaels
When Venessa Michaels and I make music, it’s always honest. This song is a sonic expression of the purest form of love. A reassurance that even in the complexities of our darkest moments, you can look to those that you trust to fill your cup with love. And that’s a well that never runs dry. There’s definitely a beautiful spirit behind this record, and I believe that it’s a spirit of peace. – Luck
Venessa Michaels, a LA-based producer, looks to the past for inspiration. Nostalgia drives her retro-futuristic ‘2090’ genre, which merges dance music with Y2K-inspired hip-hop and pop.
Michaels‘s style has led to collaborations with J.Worra, Lil Texas, and Kaleena Zanders, tours with NIKI, Raury, 6lack, Party Favor, and Krewella, and performances at Coachella, Splash House, and Camp Flog Gnaw. He also created the theme song for the DreamWorks Netflix show KIPO and the Age of Wonderbeasts.
Now, Venessa Michaels is preparing to release her first LP, Sent From Saturn – a lush blend of house, pop, tech-house, breakbeat, and more.
Lead single “Spirit On Mine” features genre-bending singer/songwriter Luck. “Spirit On Mine” is Venessa Michaels‘ first release in over a year and continues her creative cooperation with Luck after “Moment Forever” and Luck’s EP.
“Spirit On Mine” begins with airy synth pads and a funky groove before Luck’s beautiful vocals. The song’s beautiful harmonies and catchy snaps evoke early 2000s R&B.
The tune rises with kaleidoscopic guitar lines and immersive risers before descending into a futuristic garage instrumental with a house rhythm. Deep, pulsing basslines flow amid syncopated percussion beats. Luck’s hypnotic tune is surrounded by guitars and pitch-modulated voice sounds. “Spirit On Mine” offers an insight inside Venessa Michaels‘ creative mind with deep aural richness.
“Spirit On Mine” is a stunning music video made by JREAMS. The film mimics abstract art with sparse aesthetics that emphasize the artists’ connection and friendship.
Fans can catch “Spirit On Mine” and other Sent From Saturn songs when Venessa Michaels plays the next Los Angeles Long Story Short party on Thursday, October 27.
