Premiere: Neneh Cherry - Blank Project
On February 25th '14 Neneh Cherry will release Blank Project, her first solo record in 16 years. Produced by post-punker Kieran Hebden a.k.a Four Tet the whole album (10 tracks) was recorded and mixed down in just 5 days. Also worth mentioning is that a certain Robyn Carlsson will be featured on a track called Out of The Black! The first taster is the title track, an eclectic and organic sounding song miles away from the sleek Buffalo Stance. Neneh's voice is raw over a sparse and dark beat. Those drums and bass hides a lot of pain and sadness while at the same time invite your body to find its primordial rhythm and just let it all out. The album is written to work through a personal tragedy and the evidence shows in this track. Sounding like a beat poet we're getting snippets from a family situation. It's raw, honest and a lot to take in. Press play gently below and prepare for quite a trip! Thoughts?
