Romare—real name Арчи Fairhurst—returns with his new album “Home”, marking his 3rd on Ninja Tune and first full-length album since 2016’s critically acclaimed “Love Songs: Part Two”. Это последует за последним релизом "Gone / Danger' 12“, его самый прямой танец, записанный на дату, которую резидентский советник описал как”an engrossing eight minutes of cinematic House music".
Romare's music has always SAT comfortably in both the dancefloor world and a more relaxed environment, “Home” being no exception. С эйфорическими, возвышающими моментами на "солнце" и "небеса" через более медитативные и меланхоличные моменты на "избавлении". ” For me, the sweet point in music is when happy and sad come Together "comments Fairhurst," when they meet in the middle, that's what I try to create".
The release of “Home” comes after a lifetime of being on the move for Fairhurst, he spent his childhood travelling постоянно with his family as his parents moved around the world for work, before finally settling in the UK. Этот кочевой образ жизни продолжался с его буржуазной карьерой, как musician taking him off touring the world (playing over 150 shows in the last 2 years alone). Which brings us to “Home”, The new album marks a new chapter in Fairhust’s life with a move out of London to the countryside and starting a family, a move which has “given me peace and quiet,” he comments. Новое дополнение к его собственному дому-построенная студия добавляет к этому ощущению содержания и расположению, работающему из разных спален студии в прошлом.
Shifting from themes of love and romance on “Love Songs: Part Two”, “Home” explores spirituality, identity and belonging. “Identity and a sense of belonging is something i've been searching for more since becoming a father,” he explains, “growing up I was always around lots of people from different backgrounds, my own identity sometimes felt lost”. It see s Fairhurst pull from the more unusual records in his collection for inspiration, delving into american gospel and traditional irish folk through to country, religious hymns and classical (with a special nod to composers Томас Таллис and Vaugn Williams). ” Я всегда хочу исследовать разные звуки и гены из разных стран и backgrounds", - комментирует Фэрхерст. During the past few years Fairhurst has moved from purely sample based music, developing his use of instruments in his music and experimenting with different tools, both old and new. Эти инструменты включают винтажный орган, который он нашел в местном благотворительном магазине, его папина старая 12-струнная гитара, повторная сборка его детского барабанного набора из 90-х и ленточного игрока, который позволил ему начать выборку из кассетной ленты.
Both previous albums have received impressive press pick up across the board. “Projections”, voted 2015 Album of the Year by DJ Mag, and “Love Songs: Part Two” which received praise from the likes of Pitchfork, Dazed, Loud and Quiet and Mixmag, who described it as "Precisely the sort of confounding of expectations we love to hear, and обещает well for a long, interesting career" in their 9/10 review. His tracks have also been championed across the radio spectrum by Annie Mac, Benji B, Huw Stephens and Фил Таггарт at BBC Radio 1; Жиль Петерсон, Лорен Лэверн, Том Рэйвенскрофт, Mary Anne Hobbs and Nemone at BBC 6 Music; In the US by Zane Lowe Beats at 1, and DJs from KCRW, NTS, Triple J and many more.
Towards the end of 2019 romare set out on a US tour which included live shows at Elsewhere in Brooklyn, Los Angeles’ 1720 and August Hall in San Francisco. За последние несколько лет он сыграл шоу в лондонских печатных изданиях, Коко и Овальном пространстве, плюс два sold out month-long residencies, first at Phonox and mostly recently at the Jazz Cafe. Фестиваль appearances have included Primavera, All Points East, Parklife and Dimensions.
the album artwork, created by Fairhurst himself, uses a Collage technique consisting of black and white cut-out images. "In this artwork each cut-out resembles an artist or group sampled in the album", comments Fairhurst.
