deepState is the musical project of Jessica Morgan (she/her), a musician and songwriter based in Tāmaki Makaurau. Her music is a journey of electronic experimentation, investigating the nuances of House, Electronica, Downtempo, Garage and Breakbeat.

Today deepState announces her new album Dreams (released digitally on September 1 via Sunreturn), and shares a new single and video for Won't Let You Down.

Won’t Let You Down is a high-energy heartbreak, traversing soft pads, emotionally charged vocal hooks, four to the floor kick drums and one hell of a piano loop. Blissfully melancholic, it’s like watching the sunrise after an all night rave.

“I wanted to make an uplifting dance track inspired by house and dance hits of the 1990's" says Morgan. “I love the big sound of house, rave piano and vocal samples, they feel so euphoric and always add an extra layer of energy and emotion.”

“Won’t Let You Down is probably the most upbeat track on Dreams and I feel that it stands out from the rest in that way.”

Won’t Let You Down is accompanied with a NZ On Air funded music video made by Frances Carter, a photographer and director who has worked with the likes of BENEE, TEEKS, The Beths and Melodownz. Her work has appeared in well-known publications including Rolling Stone, i-D, Nylon and Vogue.
