REVIEW & INTERVIEW: JULIENT “SOLO”
Under the stars, you looked back at the place used to define everything about who you are for the last time. You fastened the belt on your backpack and stepped into the unknown, determined. There’s no turning back. Walking through thorny roads and dangers in the dark, sometimes you don’t know if you’re on the right track or circling back to where you began. Under the deep blue canvas, guided by the stars. The pursuit of one’s true calling is a journey alone.
Naturally drawn to the creative field, Julient has experienced everything before finding his true calling in music. In 2017, he decided to study fashion design with a plan for the future in mind. “I had already noticed at the beginning of the study, I’m missing something,” he said. When he taught himself to produce music and started collaborating with other musicians, he realized he had been missing music. However, the journey in pursuit of his passion isn’t an easy one. Born in a non-artistic family, he is blazing a new trail all on his own.
“I think my biggest challenge is myself,” Julient is bluntly honest about his own constraints, “I felt determined. At the same time, I was also afraid.” Narrated around his self-reflective soul-searching journey, “Solo” represents a collective experience of dream seekers. Although doubts and fear sometimes cloud their visions, they are determined and unstoppable. “Even if it's hard, he fights for something and does not want to be stopped,” said Julient.
In the immersive sound-bath, loneliness approaches, but the stars shine through the darkness, unnoticeably guiding the true north. The narrative of “Solo” evolves and transcends into an upbeat, empowering experience about courage and finding strength while maintaining its sensitivity. "I know no one could help me, but I have to go my way,” he said.
