Manchester-based electro-pop artist Jay Hofman is set to mesmerise listeners once again with his latest single, ‘Good Kind (To Me)’, featuring the dynamic vocals of Voilàh, the track is taken from Hofman’s upcoming album ‘Commentarium de Paradiso’.
Inspired by moments of joy and happiness, this vibrant track is a testament to Hofman’s evolution as an artist and his commitment to delivering infectious, feel-good music. Written during a holiday in Denia, Spain, ‘Good Kind (To Me)’ captures the essence of pure happiness and the desire to share that joy with the world. At its core the track centres around the moment when you realise you’ve found someone who is perfect for you, both good and kind.
Hofman’s previous albums have often explored more serious themes, but with this new release, he wanted to infuse a sense of playfulness and light-heartedness into his music. « Writing this song was a spontaneous burst of creativity, » says Hofman. « It came together in just five minutes, but I wanted to enhance the song by inviting Voilàh to feature on it after meeting her at the dance show. Her unique style added a whole new dimension to the track, and I’m thrilled to have her feature on it. »
Produced by Chris Hughes of Oscillate Recordings in Cheshire, UK, ‘Good Kind (To Me)’ has been years in the making, with both Hofman and Voilàh navigating busy schedules, they are now excited to share the culmination of their hard work and creativity with the world.
