In the spirit of Halloween, we have a spine-tingling new single from London’s Tender called ‘Fear Of Falling Asleep’. Composed of eerie, oscillating synths, creeping funk lines and miasmic vocals, it’s a single that taps into the insomniac in all of us, whether that’s because we’ve flooded our veins with too much sugar, watched one too many horror flicks, or have a more destructive fear that the night will wipe away our past… as though it were never real. Not only is this sumptuous single perfect for the time of year, but it also happens to be the title of Tender’s next album, out on January 18th next year, and already available for pre-order. Don’t sleep on this. - Hannah Thacker
