DJ/Producer ILLENIUM and ascending pop singer/songwriter, JVKE make a formidable team on single, “With All My Heart.”

“And I hope that when I’m gone / You’ll forgive me, all my wrongs / Say a prayer for me, I know I don’t deserve your love, yeah.” Oh, what thoughtful lyrics, JVKE. The rising pop musician with a golden voice joins forces with DJ/producer ILLENIUM on the single, “With All My Heart”. ILLENIUM produces this 13^th track from ILLENIUM (arrives April 28, 2023) alongside Jason Evigan. The sound and aesthetic are incredibly sweet, with a fine palette of sounds and plenty of rhythmically satisfying instrumental moments.

JVKE, of course, handles all of the vocals, including the tuneful centerpiece, the chorus:

“So, with all my heart, I’m gonna love

With all my heart, I’m gonna trust

With all my heart, I’m gonna give you everything…”

Notably, there is also a DROP post-chorus – it goes with the territory with electronic music. Thematically, JVKE, who writes with ILLENIUM, Evigan, Rami, and Zac Lawson, focuses on love and evolving as a person. “I don’t wanna look at where I’ve been,” he sings in the second verse, adding, “I wanna look at where I’m goin’ / Let my mess become my message, it made me who I am.” Prudent, by all means.

Final Thoughts

big mood All said and done, ILLENIUM and JVKE make a formidable team. The vocals are solid. The production is ear-catching – a definite vibe. The songwriting is also #WINNING, particularly the most reflective, thoughtful moments. “With All My Heart” serves as a nice preface to ILLENIUM.
