Following his self-produced 2021 EP ‘New Colours In The Sky’, co-released by Spirit Goth (CASTLEBEAT, Vansire) and his own indie label Crafting Room Recordings (ELLiS D, Ideal Living, Maximilian), Archie has been working to reinvent himself with a new body of work. ‘Silver Lake’ is the first dreamy offering from that refined selection.
Utilising a six string bass playing chords to start the song, (something he has also been known to do when playing bass with ladylike) Archie combines elements of shoegaze and new wave to create the sparkling foundation of ‘Silver Lake’. On this new single Archie says:
‘I wrote Silver Lake just before moving in with my partner and it’s perhaps the sappiest love song I’ve written. It’s based on the simple idea of creating a place that belongs to both of you – whether that’s a physical space like an apartment or the space you have for eachother, that feeling of comfort when you think of them. It’s about how a person can make you feel as if there is no past or future without them, everything you need is right here.”
Written, recorded, mixed and mastered by Archie, the track also features his partner Jasmine on backing vocals. Scott Alex Robinson (SPIKEMYHEART, Ahno) also contributes to the track, lending their jazzy drumming technique to the rhythm section.
