about

These insistent, quietly rhythmical and predominantly ambient pieces are explorations in marking time, of waiting and reflecting. Echoes of being in the moment, even when you don’t know what that moment actually is. Of fluctuating emotions: anxiety, resignation and defiance! But, also, positivity and an increased appreciation of the things closest to us that we often overlook.

The urgency of 'Steal' works as a counterpoint to the track ‘Mangled Pianos’. While still tinted with melancholia, it is a pulsing, reverberating burst of energy, a release valve against the frustrations of all those nights-out lost and shared experiences missed.

“The idea was to create an aural representation of the feeling I had during lockdown,” says Holroyd, “which was a time where I was doing the same, or very similar things, every day, without much variation or structure.”
