Peach Discs hits 20 releases, they celebrate with an EP from Saoirse, who delivers five techy rollers in her signature tough but sensual style.
In her own words: 'Vampire Heart and Catfished were written in the midst of lockdown - I was spending so much time in the studio (even sleeping there some nights) and was really able to explore different sounds and vibes. Vampire Heart still gives me a strange feeling as it was written the day the government announced that we had passed the peak of Covid and might be able to go outside again, something I tried to convey with the pads and break - that positive feeling of opening up. Conversely, Catfished was written during Covid’s peak - it felt like we were on this haunting loop that just kept going round and round, not knowing when it would end.
Mangomouse and Heated Cloud were written more recently and tie into what I’m calling “my tribal era.” I was a drummer for years but put the sticks and djembe down once I found electronic music… this is a path I think I’ll keep following as the rhythm comes naturally to me.'

STAFF COMMENTS
Matt says: Came for the loud and wobbly "Mangomouse" terrace trembler, bound to make even the stiffest torsos quiver. Stayed for the minimalist fist-pumper "Driver" and cried with delight at the bassline groover, "Catfished". Saoirse giving the Circoloco massive plenty to devour this summer.TRACK LISTING
