I dropped out of college and became isolated at home. It felt like my life was falling apart around me. Music had always been an outlet for me in the past, so I tried to channel all this dread and fear I was feeling into 'Falling'. It helped me process what I was feeling and start to pick up the pieces.

"I wrote 'Jungle' when I was living with my parents in New Jersey," explains Heller. "I had just been signed to a record deal and was traveling to New York for meetings. It was an intense inflection point in my life. I was trying to figure out how to transition between these two worlds; realizing that I was leaving the comfort and safety of the house I grew up in for a city and industry that could never live up to the dreams I had for them.
"'Jungle' is me realizing it was time to move forward regardless," he says.
Well 'Jungle' is one hell of a move forward and has made Isador one pop fans must keep a careful eye on. In the meantime, stream 'Jungle' below.
