Description
Founded in 1997, Homelife has shambled and gambled through four albums with countless different line-ups, contributors and at times up to eighteen members. That is, until now. New album, Exotic Interlude, is the product of a stripped back, concentrated version of the Homelife recipe consisting of founders Paddy Steer and Tony Burnside
Exotic Interlude is a mature work, slow brewed. The music is both ethereal yet earthy, with heavy use of acoustic timbres, swarms of coloured percussion, bulbous synths and fresh use of languid Hawaiian guitar. A timeless English summer of a record!By degrees the sound of Homelife has been folkie and far-out, in turn traditional and experimental, digital and acoustic, melodic and cacophonous, but it's always been wildly and wonderfully unique. They've trodden their own path from the outset, and are happy with the 'outsider music' label. They co-existed with all the baggy bands in Manchester but they've never been part of any scene. They ignored the indie-dance crossover when that came around, they recorded in Paddy's attic, and they always did their own thing.
