You grow in different directions, and become new people. Emotions sewn into your history. Bittersweet nostalgia. Streets you walked down. Familiar Dialogue, gesture and a body you knew too well. Everything always seems better in hindsight. That’s why we often go back, just to be reminded of why it didn’t work out in the first place.

Love always,
Zo x

Hailing from Rotterdam, Netherlands-based producer and multi-instrumentalist Talee makes his debut on Reflections with his mesmerising production ‘My Mother Was A Synthesizer’. 

Born out of a psychedelic experience, Talee first emerged on the scene in 2020 with his remix of Belgian Trance DJ Jonas Steur’s 'Fall To Pieces’, landing straight into Spotify’s New Music Friday Dance and showcasing his unique flair. Following a successful debut, Talee revealed his first AA-side projects on Berlin-based record label Disco Halal in 2022 under the mentorship of label-had Moscoman, touring the projects at 20+ live shows across the Netherlands. 

In September 2023, Talee was awarded ‘Best Producer of Rotterdam’ by The Grand Prix of Rotterdam, an emerging talent initiative in the Netherlands. He is now set to play the Sena Performers Stage for Rotterdam’s Liberation Day Festival in May 2024, which is host to several thousand attendees.

Inspired by the likes of LCD Sound System, Totally Enormous Extinct Dinosaurs and James Blake, Talee’s new EP blends an array of vintage synthesizers, guitar licks and electronic beats with his voice, blurring the lines between genres to cement his own hybrid sound. The project explores the theme of family dynamics, from the intimate and distant emotions, and all the moments in between, while celebrating the strangers that become chosen family overtime.

Talee shares the meaning behind the title track and first single 'My Mother Was A Synthesizer'.

"This piece of music symbolises the evolving dance of my relationship with my mother throughout the years, extending up to the present moment. It’s a reflection of me finally indulging and putting work into this relationship on my own terms. 

As one grows more acquainted with someone, their capacity for empathy deepens. I have come to realise there’s actually a big deal of grace with which she handles her own challenges, that I did not acknowledge fully until now. Which makes me so much more grateful for her persistence in expressing her own ideals and everyone else out there doing the same."

Talee ‘My Mother Was A Synthesizer’ is out now on Reflections. Pre-order the new EP, due 16 October.
