Echoes: 1st Night on Futura

Night on Earth Long-Term Project Album of Futura Seoul
The endless stories of the night that the Earth holds within.

Echoes

Musician JEWHI will release his new song Echoes on October 6th, marking the first chapter of the long-term project album Night on Earth by Futura Seoul. The song explores the theme of humanity, the first of four topics—human, nature, machine, and the future they will create—focusing on the most universal emotion: love.

This track was particularly inspired by Refik Anadol's Machine Hallucination Series, currently on display at Futura Seoul's 100 Poems (Gallery 4). Singer-songwriter Sam Kim participated in writing the lyrics, and the song blends emotional piano, vocals, strings, and acoustic sounds to craft a deep narrative.


The two musicians pose the question, "What does it feel like to fall in love?" This question may be directed not only to us but also to AI. Rather than offering a clear answer, Echoes reflects on the idea that, regardless of circumstances, love will happen. The song suggests that human love may be more than just an emotion—it might be a kind of "human hallucination." Much like Professor Choe Jae-cheon's insight, "To know is to love," it conveys that human hallucinations, like machine hallucinations, can be equally beautiful.

In Echoes, the first track of this project, JEWHI designed every step, from composition to mixing, aiming to create a unique musical experience where humanity, tools, and space resonate naturally.

JEWHI

In 2013, he participated in 《Superstar K5》 and gained attention for his involvement in arranging IU’s 'My Old Story'. Since then, he has built a strong reputation for his emotional music, composing songs such as IU’s 'Through the Night', 'Heart', 'In this present moment', and Jung Seung-hwan’s 'The Snowman'. He also received much love for his vocal performance on the OST 'Dear Moon' from the drama 'My Mister'. With the release of his new single Echoes in collaboration with Futura Seoul, JEWHI is once again demonstrating his unique musical expansion and is expected to embark on a new artistic journey.
