Dreams Along The Shore – Out 12th September
Pre-order here: https://craftingroomrecordings.bandcamp.com/album/dreams-along-the-shore
Produced by Matthew Gleeson (of Welly) and recorded in a marathon session at Sussex Studio A, this new single finds Archie leaning into the heavier side of his sound with a tight-knit lock groove undercutting the second half of the song. Inspired by dreams of the beach from his childhood, gloomy and deserted, the track utilises darker instrumentation to convey the eerie atmosphere.
On this new single Archie says:
‘Fistral is named after the UK’s premier surfing beach in Newquay (Cornwall) where I spent a lot of time with my family when growing up. I found myself returning in dreams to the beach at night and on my own. I wrote the song inspired by those dreams and that strange haunting feeling of returning to a place from your past that has forever changed. That unnerving feeling inspired the darker and heavier instrumentation; I tried to capture that effect with the bass VI arpeggio that starts the song. In reality the beach is much the same as ever, but I no longer feel as connected to it – more like a tourist in somewhere I used to belong.’
