Joey Sachi Returns With New Song “Fractured”
Tokyo-based Australian electronic-pop singer-songwriter Joey Sachi returned with a new song “Fractured” on August 2, 2023.
The song is her first music in two years since the 2021 single “If I Ask”.
It was written by Joey Sachi and Akinat. Produced by Andy Mak.
Lyrically, the track is a metaphor for a heart that does not completely break, thus showcasing the intricacies of emotional pain and resilience.
Joey Sachi said of the song, “The songwriting process is an incredibly personal and cathartic journey for me. It always begins with an experience, or often inspired by an old diary entry reflecting on a stage of life. I then workshop a chord progression to find one I am sonically drawn to and I write my topline. Lyrics follow and when I'm finally happy my co-writer Akinat will reharmonize the chords for me.”- She continued, “I had no hand whatsoever in the production, instead I worked with my incredibly talented Australian producer, Andy Mak which was an absolute dream of mine. I was initially drawn to his music because of his exquisite sounds. Andy skillfully integrated lush and emotive string arrangements, adding a layer of depth and richness to the track. His meticulous attention to detail and his innate understanding of electronic music allowed him to work his magic which transformed the song and elevated it to new heights.”
She added, “Often pop music is victim to extremely simple, mundane and repetitive harmony however by taking cues from great contemporary Classical composers like Arvo Pärt, I'm developing ways in pushing harmony further whilst keeping it sonically familiar for listeners” -
