Caroline is the lead single from new EP, 'Caroline/If Only' OUT NOW!

London-based singer-songwriter Douglas Dare releases new EP, following on from his debut album Whelm. Named after album track Caroline and new track If I Knew I Were Alive, it also features remixes by fellow label mate Ryan Lee West aka Rival Consoles and Houndstooth’s own electronic producer Ross Tones aka Throwing Snow.
Caroline has always been a precious track for Douglas, one of the first tracks he recorded and a story in which he imagines his grandfather is writing to a loved one during the war. As the only song on his debut album that is stripped down to just his voice and piano playing, and it being a favourite amongst fans at his concerts, it was a natural choice as a first single.

Caroline

It's been countless days, since last we wrote
And countless more, since last we wrote
But now that's all that remains
The letters that make up your name
And I used to see every line that crossed 
Your face, but now the lines are lost
In stories told and I've grown old
Let me read again the letters that you sent

Caroline wrote to me
Every day of that July
But now that's all I have left
Just thirty-one pages of Caroline

I waited all that time for you
To write be back, to write a new
Verse of our love but it never came
Just hoped my Caroline was safe
And just as I had always feared
Your precious words they disappeared 
In to my mind as I went blind
Let me read again the letters that you sent

Caroline wrote to me
Every day of that July
But now that's all I have left
Just thirty-one pages of Caroline

To pick them up might cut my hands
And blind me 
To pick them up might cut my hands
And blind me

Let me read again the letters that she sent

Caroline/If Only

Affliction w/ Needraw

Berlin-based composer and producer Artur Sommerfeld – aka SOMMERFELD – is busy carving out a niche in the German capital, but not in the most obvious way. Forging his own path beyond the city’s well-trodden techno trails, his reduced style cross-steps ambient, experimental and even the cinematic.

Having had his intrigue in music sparked at an early age, the first instrument he set out to learn was the piano. Without doubt, all other instruments the young producer has mastered since centre on pianism, it’s the pole around which everything else circles. As his portfolio demonstrates, SOMMERFELD’s sound effortlessly scales a multitude of genres.

His improvisational approach takes you on a melodic voyage that spans everything from neoclassical to trip-hop. 
But no matter what, it always starts with the keys.
