Blood Orange: Essex Honey (Vinyl 2xLP)
Tax included.
Dev Hynes aka Blood Orange announces the release of his first album in six years - Essex Honey. Lorde, Caroline Polachek, and Turnstile’s Brendan Yates all feature.
The album explores themes of family grief, England, and the healing, communal power of music throughout a lifetime. Lyrically, the album is diaristic yet communal, existing in the haze of memory that often follows a loss.
Musically, this is reflected sonically through analogue recordings, recurring cello motifs, nods to earlier Blood Orange projects, and various musical interpolations from Hynes’ youth. The album includes an array of arrangements and instruments like acoustic guitar with punk distortion and melodic, ethereal tones woven into his dreams as a kid growing up in Essex, imagining his future.
Essex Honey features contributions from The Durutti Column, Mustafa, Caroline Polachek, Daniel Caesar, Lorde, Zadie Smith, Tirzah, Brendan Yates (Turnstile), and Mabe Fratti.
