Los Angeles-based yetep expands his collaborative catalog by joining forces with fellow L.A. artists Lockbox and singer/songwriter artemis orion. The trio delivers their moving electropop anthem “Deep End” on Lost In Dreams.
“Deep End” is a multifaceted narrative of growth, vulnerability, transformation, and, most importantly, love. The track traces the changing seasons of the heart moving from the dark chills of winter to the bright promise of spring’s bloom. Icy piano keys lead the cinematic introduction, as artemis orion’s vocals mix introspection and sorrow. Following the emergence of the powerful lyrics of the hook, “If I’m in the deep end // would you follow?” the production brightens blissfully, giving way to the shifting axis propelled by winds of hope. Meanwhile, the lyrics trace a path of raw vulnerability and unlocks the track’s jovial apex. Lush atmospheres and uplifting melodies intertwine into an explosion of euphoric optimism that symbolizes the openness and joy of reciprocated love once more. Weaving pain, resilience, and hints of bliss, the talented trio delivers a beautifully layered electropop ballad that commands repeat plays.
Yetep, Lockbox, and artemis orion share their consensus about the collab’s significance: “‘Deep End’ is a melodically rich pop anthem that navigates through the tender journey of healing from past wounds and the bravery of opening one’s heart once more—an exploration into the soul’s capacity for resilience and love. We’re all excited to be releasing this track on Lost In Dreams, and we can’t wait for you all to hear this.”
