YOVA

Attractive Forces

£13.99

Released: 22nd May 2026. YOVA are Macedonian born Jova Radevska (vocals/lyrics) and London based Mark Vernon (music). The duo's third album 'Attractive Forces', released on May 2026, was recorded in London, Cornwall and Macedonia 2024-2025. It was produced by Mark Vernon and mixed in Bristol by TJ Allen (Portishead, Bat For Lashes, Hannah Peel). The album includes seven brand new songs written by the duo along with a version of The Velvet Underground's 'Pale Blue Eyes', originally released in 1969. The album closes with YOVA's reimagining of Macedonian group Memorija's 1989 hit 'Fire Under The Stars (Ogan Pod Zvezdite)' written just before the break-up of Yugoslavia in the early 1990's. Throughout 'Attractive Forces' Jova's beguiling vocal channels into a delicate balance where both vulnerability and strength co-exist. Her lyrics speak of the need for self-empowerment and spiritual fulfilment in an unpredictable world increasingly driven by the technological advances of AI, global uncertainty, conflict and climate change. Like a film-score the music throughout the album sensitively underscores each separate piece: at times liminal and fragile, at others immersive, cinematic and even maximalist.
