Liela Moss (of The Duke Spirit) Shares New Track “Memories And Faces”
Of the track Liela says: “Musically the song is inspired by some of those crawling tempos of Mezzanine-era Massive Attack, whilst I was also chasing a particular kind of a sparse majesty like you hear in Emmylou Harris’s ‘Wrecking Ball’”. Of the video she adds: “With this video I wanted to play with an idea of a personal memory loop of someone. Ren Rox and I thought about that obsessive quality of remembering, and what it looks like in your mind’s eye. You replay, sometimes in colour sometimes in black and white. Often you recall them as they were in a photograph but other times with a less photographic visual quality, distant maybe, as if lost behind a veneer or tv glitch. Whilst all this was going on, I wanted to lie on the floor and pretend I was in a Roxy Music album cover. Just because!”
