A lyric from Daniel Avery's new single, Rapture In Blue, apt because the tech has been so laggy that's taken me nearly 50 minutes to get this far with the post, despite two reboots.
Somedays, you just have to let it go...
So, no lengthy discourse on Daniel's genius as a music maker, or his ability to confidently switch - or define - genres with dizzying speed.
Rapture In Blue is arguably Daniel's most poppy moment, mixing things up with a dash of M83, a sprinkling of Trentemøller and echoes of Rob Dougan. All providing a perfect soundscape for the voice of Cecile Believe aka Canadian artist Caila Betsy Nell Thompson-Hannant.
Oh, and a gorgeous blue video (no, not that kind of blue video), directed by Zak Watson and starring Anna Nesterova and Hana Hrzic.
An album from Daniel Avery is always something to look forward to but Tremor, appropriately enough incoming on Halloween. seems especially so. Daniel's also playing a handful of European shows to promote to album, including Manchester, Bristol and London.
Daniel describes Tremor as "a record for the post-rave comedown kids, the guitar heads and anyone else who wants to come along for the ride. Everyone is welcome.”
I'm fastening my seatbelt now.
Great song. I am prepared for the ride
