Henry Carlyle
Manchester based produce, Artist and The Orielles guitarist, Henry Carlyle shares new single I Float alongside accompanying video featuring himself showcasing some nocturnal dance moves.
Following previous releases The Ground and A Bigger Splash, new single I Float has been developed using synths rather than guitar this time around. The track has been played live, and developed over the winter and has only found form that Henry is happy with by coupling it with technology he started working with late last year. It’s a product of winter as Henry locked himself away, waiting for it to pass.
Discussing the track Carlyle comments: “This winter crept up on us. I started writing a lot of music on this synth I bought back in October. During dark evenings I built up an ambient track, Prelude and when I finished that I realised it was the element I Float had been missing. Through its many iterations, I struggled to get close enough to expressing the song's idea until then.
“It's about floating on through, not being present, doing what you’ve got to do. In a sense, it's about living a minimal existence until you feel well enough to thrive again.”
