JVLY (pronounced “July”) is a project from Australian singer-songwriter/producer, Kayle Butler. Now too long ago, he released a groovy electro-R&B single, titled, “ambien.”
JVLY – “ambien” single
“I could feel your love erasing, I made myself delete for months. There I was vacant, but now I’m on my feet. But something is missing lately, I can’t shake the memory. I can’t wash you off of me, now I can barely sleep. My eyes glued to the ceiling, your scent glued to my sheets. You were ambiens to me, I’m up all night.” – lyrics
‘ambien’ tells a heartfelt tale about a young guy who has trouble falling asleep at night. He feels the love of someone he desires, but that individual is not around. Later, he admits, “For months there I was faking, but now I’m on my feet.”
‘ambien’ contains a relatable narrative, ear-pleasing vocals, and tuneful melodies. The likable tune possesses groovy bass and saturated drum-laden instrumentation flavored with electro-R&B and indie soul elements. Furthermore, “ambien” serves as a tasty appetizer to what listeners can expect to hear from JVLY shortly as he continues to release new music.

“When I make things, I don’t think I’m ever really hyper-conscious of the intention. I just tend to play or write whatever comes to mind and feels good to me. So, it’s sometimes hard to recount what it was that was driving it or inspiring it. ‘ambien’ however came along one day when I was just trying to get these chords and this bass groove down, and I couldn’t get the ‘I’m up all night’ melody line out of my head when I was playing it. Usually, when that happens, I just keep at it, and so far, I think I have only completely finished the songs I have put out into the world. I don’t really finish my ideas if at a certain point, I don’t think they’ll ever get to a place where they’ll be worth it. That’s probably not so smart either but I can’t do it if I’m not excited about it. Anyway, that line kind of leaked out and it lent itself to the idea of someone’s presence being like a sedative in a way, and the insomnia that comes without it.” – JVLY explained
JVLY makes chilled electro-R&B/soul music that can be likened to a mix between Tom Misch, Charlotte Day Wilson, and Omar Apollo. Over the last few months, he has been busy working on a collection of new music which he’ll be sharing with us throughout 2023.
