The Homeless Wanderer

Postcards in the Rain (Her) 🌧️💌
Hey everyone, I'm so glad you decided to click play on this one. This the female version of the song with the same name~ there is a "He" version.

This version, Postcards in the Rain, feels like a very honest, quiet moment I needed to share. It sits in that sweet spot where a simple Chillhop beat meets a tender, cinematic melody. It’s carried by those catchy, loopy chords and a smoky mezzo vocal that tries to tell a secret in the middle of the night.

The Heart of the Song
This song is just me sitting in the stillness, trying to figure out how to miss someone gracefully. It’s about being stuck in that beautiful, messy place where the world moves on, but you just can't.

The Intimacy: The verses set the scene at two a.m. with the kettle humming. It's about those small, painful anchors: the sweater on the chair, the dust lines you trace. My heart won’t learn; it keeps flipping through those pages that still burn.

The Confession (The Chorus): This is the central, sincere admission: I’m still writing those postcards in the rain. It’s the words I never dared to say when I had the chance. Watching them bleed and blur is sad, but I realize "maybe love's a water stain"—it's permanent, even if the edges are soft and fading.

The Reflection (The Bridge): That low-key spoken word section is where I'm most vulnerable. I admit I still hum your song that skips on the last chorus. The world outside forgets our steps, but I still dance in the mess. It's the simple truth: I stay the same, sending postcards in the rain.

Thank you for giving this quiet piece of my heart a listen. It means the world to me that you let me share this with you.

Please listen when you need a gentle moment, and I hope this finds you well.

And oh, please listen to the guy's version as well~ *Winkies and kisses*

August 2018: It’s already been three years since Domenique Dumont made its entrance in the music world with a debut EP named Comme Ca. Despite a seemingly very quiet musical activity (the opening song to Antinote’s compilation Five Years Of Loving Notes was the only song released by the band in 3 years) a few things have changed in-between these two summers: Domenique Dumont is no more the mysterious lone French producer we introduced last time but a Latvian duo, Arturs Liepins and Anete Stuce, which has been collaborating with “an enigmatic French artist whose existence cannot be confirmed nor denied” (sorry, but it sounds like there’s still some mystery in the air, and, again, we’re just as clueless as you might be), the duo have been touring live and, most importantly, they kept on broadening their musical palette experimenting in a definitely pop field. Eight of these experiments are now tied together in Miniatures de Auto Rhythm.

The record probably begins where Comme Ca ended: frantic but light drum programing backbones a solar and slightly melancholic melody on Le Début De La Fin (“the beginning of the end”). However, the scope gets enlarged as soon as one reaches the second tune, Quasi Quasi, or Quand, on the flip side, perhaps the most overtly pop-rock oriented song on the record with its Mediterranean guitar and emotional bridge.

The road towards the apex of the record, Le Soleil Dans Le Monde, is a narrow and windy one, punctuated by toy instrumentals like Ono Mambo Haiku or the Donkey Kong Country-friendly Message Of The Diving Bird; however it never departs from its original tongue-in-cheek attitude. It’s quite pleasant to imagine these eight “miniatures” as field recordings from an enchanted world of pop music designed by some Pierre & Gilles’ disciples – or are there
musical interpretations of half-mechanical, half-organic creations from a certain Otto Rhiesem (who might have inhabited the Locus Solus villa)? There might be no definitive answers to this second set of riddles by Domenique Dumont.
