Just over a year ago, vocalist Leanne Macomber and producer Joel Ford released Dominae — their first offering as Brooklyn-based electronic duo Ejecta. In the time since, a cease and desist order from a European DJ has caused them to change their stage name to the appropriately titled Young Ejecta (given both Macomber’s ripe age and the band’s relatively fresh sound) and prompted the imminent release of their new “mini-album” The Planet at the end of the month.
“Into Your Heart” is our third taste of the project and it’s a sharp, aquatic-sounding electro-pop track that truly surges and comes to life at the 1:20 mark. “Tell me I can stay here in your heart,” Macomber longs, adding, “I hope I’m not too late.” The song is immediate, forward moving, and utterly fascinating as it instantly catches the ear while managing to retain its otherworldly charm. Listen below.
