This song was written in the second national lockdown in the U.K. Archie captures a rainy evening in Brighton where street lights reflected off the floor like fireworks and glittered in the falling rain.

Archie’s new E.P. will be released September 12th of this year and features his best crafted songs to date, telling his story of moving away and falling in love.

lyrics:
Soaked, Stumbling in the rain
Passing through empty streets again
The wind throws me to the ground
Other than you, there’s no sound

Violet swirls occupy my sight
Glitter falls from the sky
And I know the moon is full tonight
Light is bouncing off your eyes

Walking past lines of cars
Blinding lights fill the floor with stars
Tonight is only the start
And I’m warm in the jacket of your arms

I think I am just my eyes
Reaching forward, for the flood
And I’m stuck on the door, on the way in

New Colours In The Sky is Archie’s second E.P. and it features his best songwriting to date. with higher production standards and more complex instrumentation, this new E.P. promises to deliver catchy dream-pop / post-punk songs with resonant emotional themes.

The E.P. was written whilst away from home for the first time, telling the story of Archie falling in love and finding a new place to be from. For this new E.P. Archie created tracks from his cramped university bedroom during the second and third U.K. lockdowns.

Inspired by the music of The Cure, The Chameleons, Joy Division and New Order; “New Colours In The Sky” blends post-punk basslines and song structures with dreamy vocals, swirling guitars, catchy hooks and ambient drones.

“Combines the driving bass lines of Peter Hook with the chilling guitar work of Robert Smith to provide plenty of post-punk energy” – White Light White Heat

“Never settling in on a moment
I move through wasted time
Is it all just a simulation
Leaving life for the slaughter house

I was left on a pilgrims journey
Travelling through the fourth dimension
Is there any meaning to it
Gone now, so it goes

Can’t turn away
From the stars
What will be
Will always be

Travelling through space and time
When the night was cold and the mist hung low
It was then that my life changed forever
Gone now, so it goes”
