A creative departure from the bands signature sound, Only Feel It When I’m With You builds upon the new textures and sounds recently delivered with the surprise drop of Midnight and Under The Surface.

With a slower tempo and mesmerizing melody, the single features the hypnotic vocals of The Jezabels singer Hayley Mary who adds her uniquely melancholic voice to one of the most daringly beautiful tracks Baby Strange have released to date.

Speaking on the collaboration, Hayley says: “I met the Baby Strange lads at the Priory in Glasgow. Loved their vibe and and we hit it off straight away. There’s a great little rock scene bubbling in that city that I’ve missed while I’ve not been able to get there, so I’m incredibly stoked to be part of this track and stay connected with them in a musical way. It’s a killer and I look forward to coming and playing it live with them sometime in the near future. 

Adding to this, Johnny Madden says:  “This is one of the most exciting singles we’ve ever released as a band. Writing it took us completely out of our comfort zone and pushed us into a new territory as writers and players. 
We’ve never had a featured vocalist on a track before, but knew right away that it had to be Hayley. The song just lends itself perfectly to her vocal style.
We’ve known Hayley for a long time so being able to work together on this was so exciting”

The artwork and visuals connected to the single follow on the series of recent releases, exploring an alternative world that offers an insight into the bitter promises of late stage capitalism. Brought to life by Glasgow based Visual Animator ‘Bovine’ the artwork itself has become a talking point for fans and media who eagerly await the next instalment.

The wait is over.

Sewer Drain

As well as the previous one, i wasn't able to finish this track as my apartment was burglarised on October 2020.
Around July 2020, i've randomly sent some music to a dear friend of mine: Simon Heah, because he wanted to hear it.
Here is what's left, as well as other lo-fi recordings that i will only share on Soundcloud.
The thieves stole my musical equipment, my computer and the usbs where i kept the projects at the time, gladly i was able to send some audio files to Simon.
There is no reason for me to holding on to it, so here it is...

Sprinkle was recorded mainly around March of 2020, in my home studio.

Further Down The Line

Nothing To Lose

Viewfinder

1977

You were guided by the crescent moon
Inside the ancient gates by noon
Altogether
The old men crooned
The Persian night had come too soon

Rising out of desert dunes
Release the serpent, oh my love
Naked flame in my room

In a flash of light, sacred earth becomes a tomb
Into darkness we descend
Hatred, greed, revenge
Hasten the end
High up in the eastern skies
A thousand burning stars shine bright

Rising out of desert dunes
Release the serpent, oh my love
Naked flame in my room

Stains of glass are in the desert
Shadows of everyone that have passed
The thief of souls will cast his net
He is the bridge between life and death
If you think you can escape the holy
The holy
The holy, the unholy wraith will seal your fate

Oh my love, the naked flame
In my room once again
In my room once again
Oh the love
The love
That I feel
The naked flame that burns
Oh it burns
Oh it burns so deep
Oh my love


NAKED FLAME
