Singer-Songwriter Jean Tan Collaborates with Yang Jung Eun for Remix of “Oak Cherry Wine”

As a follow up to her recently-released 5-track EP, ‘Blooms’, Singaporean singer-songwriter Jean Tan releases a remix of her spellbinding single, ‘Oak Cherry Wine’. Produced by Singaporean music producer, Feng Lee, the synth-pop-soul remix is a collaboration with Korean YouTube artist Yang Jung Eun and will be available on all music platforms on January, 29, 2021.

About “Oak Cherry Wine”

Written in her distinctive, bluesy vein, ‘Oak Cherry Wine’ is a love song interwoven with Jean’s personal experiences. It tells the story of Jean’s personal health struggles with kidney disease, and of the man who stood by her in the celebratory and difficult moments alike. Like all truly good romance stories, the song’s lyrics has a bittersweet tinge, and is all the better for it – a love that is tried and true.

Collaborating With Yang Jung Eun!

Marrying Jean’s lyrical sensitivity with Yang Jung Eun’s dulcet vocals, this refreshing take stays true to its original composition. The remix is elevated by a new arrangement – a lo-fi beat, the jazz-hop push and pull, the syncopated electric piano, – becoming more than just the sum of its parts. “It was a surreal experience working with June on this track while we’re in different territories, and while the world was on lockdown for much of 2020. I think the collaboration took off really well because we were just trying to make music and the best out of a crazy year. He’s also an awesome guy and so easy to work with – he even taught me some Korean!.”, says Jean Tan on working together with Yang Jung Eun.

A Music Video Is Coming!

Jean Tan will also be releasing an accompanying music video of the newly remixed version on the 14th of February made available on her Youtube channel. Directed by Stockholm-based Singaporean film director, Mandy Tay, the video features a pair of lovers dancing through the quotidian scenes of Stockholm city. Traditional meets contemporary, and ballet meets street dance, as the couple whirl around each other in a dream state, swirling like a glass of (oak cherry) wine.
