Claire Birchall - The Haunting LP2024 album that sees Claire, once again, handling all the playing and writing herself on this set of dreamy, gothic tunes inspired by nightmares. The prodigious use of synths and drum machines, augemented sparsely by analogue embellishments, create a warm and hypnotic soundscape that draws on the best elements of downbeat synth pop. It's a truly captivating record and I'm hooked!
