Brooklyn-based songwriter and producer Jae Soto has released her latest single entitled ‘Working the Weekend.’  The song offers a playful take on working-class life and combines minimalist lyrics with a danceable backdrop.

Using a vintage Roland Alpha Juno 2 synthesizer and Ableton Live’s Max MSP effects, the artist created a unique sound that contrasts bright, blippy elements with a heavy subject matter.

Jae Soto’s music spans indie-alternative and experimental pop, blending traditional songwriting with processed sounds. Before her solo career, she was a session singer, collaborating with modern jazz ensembles in New York City. Her diverse musical experiences influence her distinct sound, reflecting the city’s eclectic mix of cultures and sounds.
