“The song is about a shift in perspective,” says Juno Uno. “It is about how the world is
changing, and it is up to each individual to interpret what that change means.” Juno Uno discusses “Sides”
with NPR-affiliate KXT as part of its “Music Minute” feature on the tune: http://bit.ly/JUNO-UNO-KXT-DALLAS-MUSIC-MINUTE. +++ Juno Uno | In The Press
“Pop from another dimension." –Central
Track (Song of The Day) “A melodic smoothie of everything nocturnal and sexy.”
– Aupium “A dreamy single.” – Joy of Violent Movement “Has our head high in the clouds.” – Buzz Music +++ Juno Uno | About “I was living with
rappers and electronic music producers which eventually led to an expansion in
my sonic development,” says McKinney, Texas native Juno Uno about the genesis of “Sides,”
his new single (and a jam to last the summer) that has been steadily drawing
attention to his pulsing, dreamy sound, and also to the burgeoning music scene
of his hometown. Uno – now 21-years-old – began
writing songs in his teens by exploring sounds on an acoustic guitar, but then
quickly expanded to other instruments, finding his natural voice and means of
expression through electric guitar and different synths. A brief move to Austin
led him to explore these sound palettes even more, and it was there that he
began writing profusely, expanding his musical vision through experimentation,
and focusing his energy inwards to discover the countless realms of his own
creative mind. “Musically, I was
inspired by the drum sounds of Toro y
Moi’s album Boo Boo, while also drawing inspiration from the synths of Tame Impala’s album Currents,”
he says. Uno was also inspired in
creating “Sides” by his own emerging
trust and confidence in himself, explaining, “I learned about a balance between
trusting the flow of the universe while trusting my own confidence in my
creative process.” After leaving Austin to
travel the country, Uno was further
inspired by spiritual growth and mysticism, and after returning home to
McKinney, he built a studio, committing all of his time to writing and
recording a style of his own design. The musically inventive atmosphere,
mixed with raw and organic positive sonic exploration, is the blueprint of “Sides,” which is additionally inspired
by the poetic words of 1960s lyricism and the original truths of 1980s
synth-pop. Adding sonic touches to “Sides” are producer and musician
extraordinaire, John Dufhilo
of The Deathray Davies, who mixed
the tune, along with Drummer Jeff Ryan
