The wait for Jauz’s album is finally over! The Wise and The Wicked is a 23-track conceptual masterpiece.
In a unique spin, Jauz separated the album into four distinct chapters and a prologue. The alternating chapters are separated between “The Wise,” “The Wicked,” and finally, “The United.” Jauz explained the album in detail in a recent interview:
“When I’m writing music, half of my brain wants to write fun, crazy bangers for parties, clubs, fests, etc. This is represented by ‘The Wicked.’ The other half of the time I want to write emotional, intelligent, experimental music that feeds the ‘inner artist’ in myself, which is represented by ‘The Wise.’ The middle ground, which is where I strive to really be, is a blend of the melodic, emotional parts of my music paired with high energy drops and climaxes. This is represented by ‘The United.’” – Jauz
The LP features collaborations from Krewella, Ducky, HYPRESSION, Tisoki, SNAILS, DJ Snake, & Adventure Club. This is new territory for the producer, featuring well over 15 tracks, with tons of new artists. We welcome the change and embrace the meaning behind the full album.
