On the heels of his acclaimed 2021 EP Welcome to Dreamland, film composer-turned-singer/songwriter Joseph Reuben has released a new double single, “LOVECHASER / “Gimme Love.” The tracks were co-mixed by FKA twigs collaborator Lee Avant, while the cover art features supermodel Daisy Lowe.
Powered by Reuben’s soulful vocals and sleek production, the new songs extend his fascination with a bygone Hollywood era that inspired him to leave his religious upbringing in London and pursue a career in the arts in New York years ago.
“‘Gimme Love’ is about wanting attention, affection, and connection, whereas ‘LOVECHASER’ is about finally finding connection, but it’s broken, so you want to run. You want to stay for the fear of hurting the other, but that always results in hurting the both of you more” Reuben says.
After a sudden health emergency halted Reuben’s singing career as a teenager, he turned to scoring film, TV, and theater. Inspired by the ruminative works of Bernard Hermann and Hans Zimmer, Reuben went on to become the first person to perform an original composition at Windsor Castle in centuries. He is the founder of the production company Cinemax Studios and has produced and collaborated behind the console with peers such as Nabil (The Weeknd, Billie Eilish).
