In the house

Heron | The Wave
[SOMA402]

1. The Wave
2. Convolution

Heron returns to Soma for his 3rd solo release as he follows up the retro-esq Foolish Solina & Sorna Bay with a much more stripped back and thumping affair for his latest EP, The Wave. 

The Wave clatters in, kicking this EP of with a bang and a wildly intense kick drum sets the tone right form the outset. Piercing percussion strides along side wailing synths, guttural pad sweeps and trippy vocal cuts. Heron has really aimed for the dance floor with this jacked up techno offering and hits the bullseye easily.

Heron doesn’t mess about on the flip either and Convolution strikes just as hard as his A side counterpart. A solid drum workout kicks this track to life as slowing opening synths give this monster a deeper edge. Things really start to happen and Heron drops a signature pad line that really gives this a more Detroit sensibility.

Heron steps up his game for this release as he moves into deeper and harder territory whilst still staying true to his sound.

“In the ashes of my homeland, I planted my hopes like olive trees—knowing they would outlive the fire" — Fadwa Tuqan

Letters to the Sun emerged from a place beyond language. What if we stopped screaming into the void of geopolitical power games, and poured attention towards each other instead? What would it mean to build a space that assumes equal footing - a space where we can simply express, on our terms? For sorrow, for rage, for stillness… for the Sun.

This compilation is an attempt to do just that. A sound sanctuary built from words, sounds, breaths, instruments, and pauses - confronting the chasm of silence forced upon the rubble of Gaza, where each bomb is an affront to our humanity, and each whataboutism a dilution of horror. Here, we create space to feel and to share the within, from within, and for one another.

All proceeds of this album are donated to Revive Gaza’s Farmland, a project by Golo Besmlah and the Arab Group for the Protection of Nature. The initiative works to rehabilitate devastated agricultural land and rebuild local food systems. In a place where over 95% of farmland has been systematically destroyed - and where food is weaponised to subjugate and displace - the act of farming becomes an act of resistance.
