Just played on Dance Anthems on Radio 1, a couple of IDs in a set Jax Jones has done. When put to Shazam, it confirms one is called 'Paris' and the other is 'Feels', both sounds like MNEK on vocals too!
They're bops on first listen.

not a big fan of the IDs

Posted by: Jαsє 2nd August 2020, 06:31 PM

Need new Jax in my life!

Posted by: awardinary 26th August 2020, 05:43 PM

Tweets already coming in on who Jax Jones may collaborate with next. It can’t be too long before the next release comes.

Posted by: dan-G 26th August 2020, 05:46 PM

would be nice to have him collab with MNEK again and actually get a big single with it, now that he’s a proven success again from Head & Heart.

Posted by: WhoOdyssey 26th August 2020, 05:47 PM

I'm going to try my luck and guess Bastille

(I haven't heard either of the IDs yet so that may be already definitely wrong )

Posted by: Frenchie 26th August 2020, 05:48 PM

Becky Hill? Surely that’s gonna happen at some point.

Posted by: dan-G 26th August 2020, 08:15 PM

I would love that too - them teaming up seems inevitable - and I get the feeling we may get that collab as the next Becky Hill single, rather than it being a Jax single featuring Becky.

Feels just played on Radio 1 again

And I want you to hear it as I've sifted through my videos to the recording I did last year

Posted by: awardinary 2nd April 2021, 05:44 PM

What happened with that rumoured collab with Mabel you posted about a while ago? Wasn’t it meant to be a Europa release?

As usual, he teases and then disappears on us

Share snippets please 😰

Posted by: lewistgreen 30th May 2021, 11:23 AM

I put Feels on my Twitter a few weeks back, thought I'd shared it before. Apparently this is coming this year at some point.

Seems my Twitter link from above won't pull through?
EDIT: It's because my tweets are protected haha

Posted by: Frenchie 30th May 2021, 11:42 AM

Out next Friday!

Posted by: JackTheeStallion 30th May 2021, 12:19 PM

Has it got a feature?

Posted by: lewistgreen 30th May 2021, 05:49 PM

Ooh okay. Happy this is finally being released. I wonder if it will have changed much from its initial production.

Posted by: lewistgreen 30th May 2021, 07:31 PM

Likely to be Hottest Record on Friday as he's covering for Annie Mac on Radio 1. Great way to plug your own track haha

Posted by: sn👠ke 30th May 2021, 07:58 PM

I wonder is this a less commercial track given the lack of features?

Posted by: Bjork 31st May 2021, 06:50 AM

But this is the old song with MNEK?

Posted by: lewistgreen 31st May 2021, 02:54 PM

It's not "old" as such as it was premiered on Radio 1 in summer time last year. It sounds like MNEK, but it probably won't end up being him on the final vocals. I think if he was a feature, he'd have been confirmed his involvement by now.

Registered on PPL Repertoire. The length of the single version is 2:28 and the length of the extended mix is 5:07.

Posted by: lewistgreen 2nd June 2021, 06:11 PM

Missed this releasing yesterday oops. What a banger.
'Feels' is a rework of After 7's Can't Stop released in 1989.

Deep Joy is an EP and it's out on July 2nd and will also feature the aforementioned Paris from the OP.

1. Feels
2. Crystallise (feat. Jem Cooke)
3. You Broke My Heart Again (vs Teqkoi) [feat. Aiko]
4. Paris

its already out? oh..

Posted by: Tawdry Hepburn 2nd June 2021, 06:29 PM

This is absolutely brilliant! Bouncy

Posted by: Ho-Lee Smokes 2nd June 2021, 06:58 PM

i guess he's not going for hits at the moment then

Posted by: Bjork 3rd June 2021, 06:39 AM

wait, new EP? he's not adding it to Snacks?

Posted by: TMD_24Quavo 3rd June 2021, 01:24 PM

Ahh so I realised Feels was song that was playing on The Hundred adverts that was going around for months. It sounds so good anyway.

Posted by: Dangerous Julian 3rd June 2021, 02:11 PM

Not his best.

Posted by: Tombo 13th June 2021, 09:15 PM

I love Feels, it sounds absolutely massive

Posted by: Stu1985 17th June 2021, 11:26 PM

Crystallise out today; quite different for JJ! Love it!

Posted by: Dangerous Julian 18th June 2021, 04:59 AM

Oooo now Crystallise is much more like it!

Does the hook sample something? It seems to familiar.

'Crystallise' is fab! Jem is a fantastic vocalist and I hope she gets used more in commercial dance music.

Posted by: lewistgreen 20th June 2021, 10:34 AM

I've had a look and I don't think it samples anything. The 'oooh' bits do remind me of Studio Killers' Ode To The Bouncer though. Makes me think this'll be a top tier memorable track for them both even if it doesn't have commercial success.

Posted by: JOTA 20th June 2021, 12:05 PM

Also It reminds me to David Guetta Feat. Kelly Rowland - When Love Takes Over

Posted by: k👠th 22nd June 2021, 02:48 PM

This! It's a great track. Sounds different for Jax too. Jem is the queen dance vocals. My only complaint as always is that it's too short

Posted by: Dexton 23rd June 2021, 02:39 AM

Tbh I loved Crystallise right up until the drop. The vocals and the buildup are both brilliant and prepare you for something really euphoric but then the drop is just bleh

Posted by: dan::G 23rd June 2021, 11:46 AM

yeah I agree somewhat, I enjoy the song but it could’ve potentially been really great with a melodic drop. Jax jumping on the tech house bandwagon for only the drops just isn’t the best fit for it.

Posted by: ✖ leww ✖ 23rd June 2021, 08:22 PM

“Crystallise” is astonishing. 🥰

Posted by: Jαsє 1st July 2021, 07:39 PM

'Crystallise' is so frustrating It has these euphoric verses which build and build...to THAT drop

Paris certainly feels a bit more suped up since I heard it last summer, it's great!

Posted by: Tombo 4th July 2021, 08:07 PM

Crystallise falls a bit flat for me really
