Lava La Rue – Starface
West London artist and member of NiNE8 Collective’s new album leans on alternative indie and psychedelic rock; and features Cuco, Audrey Nuna, tendai, and more.
chameleon – Call Me Twice Pt. 1 EP
8-track EP from the Dublin songwriter, singer and producer Matthew Harris. I featured the excellent James Blake falsetto of ‘I Never Knew You Well’ and ‘The Ransom’ from the record.
“This E.P. marks the first step towards a sound I’ve been searching for for years. I am, by nature, a perfectionist. My creativity rarely matches up to my taste. And so, when I occasionally find myself in a position where I am satisfied with something I have made, I’m certain I’ll cherish it forever. I adore Call Me Twice Pt. 1. It is bold, boisterous, often obnoxious, and it collects and exhibits the dirty and the ugly of who I am at my core. I hope people hear the city in this project. The noise, the chaos, the frustration. I hope they hear the longing to be somewhere else, someone else. This is the start of the story”.
