Hi friends - hope all good :)
So pleased to say that coming on Wednesday is a gorgeous and deeply heartfelt entry in the quiet details series from the legendary Chloe Harris, here as Raica.
Out Wednesday 10th September, digital and CD editions. As always the physical edition comes with the unique long-form version of the album and bespoke six panel digi-pack, with separate artwork and glass-mastered CD.
Listening party Thursday 11th September at 19:00 UK time.
From hugely successful radio host, to much in-demand international DJ, to wonderful producer, live performer, label head and record shop owner - there’s not much in the world of truly underground electronic music that Chloe hasn’t done to the highest standard, earning herself the position as one of the most respected artists around.
As Raica she’s released next-level psychedelic synth explorations, on her own Further Records, RVNG Intl. and more - and it’s under this pseudonym Chloe’s made something incredible for quiet details.
There’s a huge amount of meaning attached to this album too - as Chloe says “This is basically just a love note to my mom and my son Cameron. They both left me much sooner than I would have liked. I've tried to carry on but sometimes it's difficult. So this is for them.”
Beyond an honour to share this with you - huge thanks to Chloe for everything.
For now, please check out some of her previous music:
Dose is a classic, only five LPs left, don’t sleep!
Also next week is the second run from another titan, Ian Hawgood’s well, here we are.
Anyone that knows me, knows how much love and respect I have for Ian, this album is a monumental piece of work so really pleased to make it available again.
Now some shout-outs:
