Releasing 4 albums on the UK’s Tru Thoughts label, idiosyncratic three-piece Belleruche are back together with their first new material since 2012’s ‘Rollerchain’.
‘Dover Soul‘ – a song of little tragedies. Belleruche are back making music after a decade apart. Uptempo and bizarrely uplifting, ‘Dover Soul’ is the first of a series of releases.
A decade older, possibly wiser and certainly more thoughtful, Kathrin deBoer, Ricky Fabulous and DJ Modest have recorded new music that pulls at the thread that was left by Belleruche and which interpret our varied experiences through a curious window.
Writing and producing music can seem like a luxury. Over the period of not recording together the trio have worked hard, teaching, caring, building, in different parts of the world, in different ways with different people and results. It seemed strange then, when the opportunity to write and record music together again arrived, how the pieces seemed to fit together in much the same way, as they did before.
The band are sincerely happy with the result, the tracks finished so far seem to have an emotional resonance that carries on from the previous records we made but have an additional attitude and tone that reflects the complicated modern world we live within.
