“Home For Now” will be the name of the debut Babeheaven album. Announced this morning with a soft, beautiful 35mm music video of trippy dream ‘Cassette Beat’, it’s a very strong announcement for the West London pair.
Spinning out like a tendril of tape from a machine, ‘Cassette Beat’ luxuriates in gently glitching beats and langurous, smoky drums – all filled in with the sweet, clear vocals of Nancy Andersen.
It recalls Portishead in its woozy sensuality, though there’s an almost indie certainty to this longing narrator, On the lyrics, Andersen said: “I wanted to write a song about creation. Whenever we create we subsequently end up destroying something in a huge way or a small way. But there is always light behind the dark even when you can’t see it yet.”
It’ll be one of 14 songs to appear on the November’s release debut album Home For Now, also containing previous releases ‘November’, ‘Jalisco’ and ‘Human Nature.’
“Home For Now” album arrives 6th November via AWAL.
