Swedish-Peruvian producer, songwriter, and multi-instrumentalist Jhon Allan has just shared his brand new single MISUNDERSTAND, a warm, stripped-down piece of music.
Taken from his new EP PURE ILLUSION, out now via Genesis Records, MISUNDERSTAND follows the atmospheric BROTHER and finds the talented artist sharing a heartfelt plea for understanding. This is an epic and magical piece of music where Allan’s heartfelt vocals radiate so much vulnerability and raw emotion, instantly making me feel each and every single word he is singing about. I am loving how intimate the song starts, with its stripped-down acoustic guitars and raw vocal delivery, gradually building into a powerful, synth-driven finale that enhances the emotion of his powerful storytelling. A song with a lot of soul and cinematic/epic touches, perfect for an introspective laid-back weekend home alone!
Speaking about the EP, John Allan said,
This EP is like a mirror of all parts of my life over the past year – the beautiful and the chaotic. It’s a journey through life’s illusions and an exploration of what’s real, for me, for you, and for us, for better or worse. It’s the most honest thing I’ve ever done – an attempt to break through the facades and find something genuine.
