Editor's note

Zhu's atmospheric, soul-touched electronic world

The producer behind 'Faded' blends house, R&B, and indie electronica with a signature moody touch.

For the full picture, start with 'Faded' and then try 'Sky Is Crying'. That's where the mood really settles in.

Zhu's 2014 single 'Faded' with Alex Ebert broke through with a moody, house-inflected sound that felt both immediate and mysterious. That same atmospheric quality runs through tracks like 'Sky Is Crying' with Yuna and 'Secret Weapon', where electronic production meets soulful vocal touches.

Steven Zhu started gaining attention in 2014 with 'Faded', which led to work with artists like Skrillex and Majid Jordan. His albums 'Generationwhy', 'Ringos Desert', and 'Theias' have continued exploring that blend of house, R&B, and indie electronica. Tracks like 'Desire' with Bob Moses and 'Guilty Love' keep building on that atmospheric foundation.

Archive material and source history

Zhu is the project of producer and multi-instrumentalist Steven Zhu, who started gaining attention in 2014 with the single 'Faded' featuring Alex Ebert of Edward Sharpe and the Magnetic Zeros. That track became a breakout hit, leading to work with other artists like Skrillex and Majid Jordan.

His music often blends house, R&B, and indie electronica, with songs like 'Desire' featuring Bob Moses and 'Sky Is Crying' with Yuna showing that range. In 2016, he released his debut album 'Generationwhy' with an unusual rollout that kept details secret until release day, which drew some notice at the time.

Later albums include 'Ringos Desert' from 2018 and 'Theias' from 2022. Other tracks like 'Guilty Love' and 'Secret Weapon' continue in that atmospheric, soul-touched electronic vein.
