Built by an introspective lazy mind, Brassau has a distinctive sound that is filling the gap between classic psychedelic progressive rock and modern alternative pop. Laced with warm tape sounds, screaming modular synthesizers, swirling rhythmic guitars, melodic keys and captivating grooves, Brassau creates landscapes of sonic moods to catch your imagination.

Pre-order the album 'Aforger' out October 14th on LP/CD/DL here: http://phonofile.link/aforger

In a digital age where memories are mimicked by pixels and identity is as malleable as static, Douglas Dare’s new album Aforger questions the boundaries between reality and fiction. 

Inspired by recent events and revelations encountered in his life these songs depict Dare at his most vulnerable, whilst simultaneously reflecting our own obsession with reality and technology back at us.  

Aforger was mixed at the iconic Abbey Road Studios and produced by long-time collaborator Fabian Prynn. In the following conversation Douglas strips back the personal journeys and realisations which preceded its recording.

In a conversation with Douglas Dare on July 11th 2016:

The album title plays with the idea of a forger – someone creating imitations or copies, and reimagines them as the creator of something that’s no longer real. Prior to writing the record, I came out to my father and came out of a long relationship, both were hugely challenging for me and questioned my idea of identity and reality. These thoughts leaked out into the record and formed the core of Aforger. I was determined not to write a break-up album or repeat what I’d done before..

I grew up on quite an isolated farm in Dorset, surrounded by fields and not much besides. My mother taught piano from home and we didn’t have a computer, or the internet or mobile phones. In fact, my family still chooses not to use these things. It’s worlds apart from my life now in London where technology seems to dominate everything I do.

After finding out my boyfriend had been leading this double-life, I became obsessed with the question of what is real and George Orwell’s 1984 felt appropriate for me to re-read. Orwell explains this idea of reality control and Doublethink, and it struck a chord with me. The idea that truth can be steered or changed, and we might be able to believe two contradictory things at once. In my case, ignorance was my protection from the truth and ignorance really is bliss, until you’re no longer ignorant.

Binary talks about the idea that technology is allowing us to live on after we’re gone. A relative of mine whose parent passed away kept a picture of them on their phone as a background image. A friend saw this and asked ‘how can you have that there to constantly remind you of your loss?’ They replied, ‘no I have to, it shows me that they’re still here’. This resonated with me and I thought ‘okay, this is just an image to me but to them it’s more than a reminder or a reassurance, it’s a reality’. At the same time, I was finding myself haunted by the digital reminder of my ex-partner and wishing they would disappear. I had to realise that it’s all just pixels on a screen. 

I think New York can be thought of as this fabricated, magical place. I was there with my boyfriend after touring the U.S., but when I came back to London I discovered all these lies and began questioning everything. I even questioned whether New York actually happened or not. New York is a song that’s literally describing that very real feeling of not knowing who or what to believe any more – scary and magical at the same time. 

Lyrically I wanted to be as honest as possible. The album deals with so much dishonesty, so I felt the lyrics had to be the counterbalance. I was inspired by Björk’s album Vulnicura and how everything is almost awkward in its honesty. Like my first album, Aforger started as poetry, but I consciously tried to be less poetic. For instance, Oh Father is an example of complete unambiguity. It’s certainly the most personal song I’ve put out there, and the realisation that people may hear it makes me feel very vulnerable. That’s the most real feeling of all for me right now.

Douglas Dare - Oh Father

Hello here is a new song with the lyrics from Demelia Denton. Oddvar plays the guitar, well dont need to say it but the spirit of Carlos Santana is captured here
Composition and production: Torbjørn Vagle
guitar: Oddvar Solheim
Lyrics Demelia Denton
Copyright 2016
~ LOVE LIFE ~

In the midst of emotion
Developed despair
Fog of the morning
And thoughts not quite clear
Tears non acceptance
Drip with the pain
Deep with the meaning
But hope still is gained
Bring forth the loving
The love in our veins
Pumping heart pressure
Continuing strain
Fortunate living
Passionately declare
Touched by the feelings
Of life's love hold dear
Reach out in earnest
To cradle the heart
Blood running through 
Injected to spark
Wrapped in the casing
The warmth of life near
Protected from damage
All hurt and your fears
Blessed with the journey
Life's pathway unknown
Past present future
Still plenty unknown
Hold tight the passion
Life's love to complete
Walk down the pathway
The future to meet

love life (Torbjørn,Demelia) feat Oddvar Solheim guitar
