HONEYGLAZE BURGLAR

Freshly signed to Speedy Wunderground, who's track record speaks for itself, 'Burglar' is the mesmerising debut single from a promising young London outfit, Honeyglaze. As with all Speedy releases, Dan Carey's world-class production brings the best out of the band, creating a heady atmosphere with ethereal sound effects, intriguing sonic layers and that instantly recognisable snare sound. Opening as a dream-like waltz, subtle influences from shoegaze and trip-hop creep in before a motorik beat takes over. Haunting call and response vocals add depth to the dreamy offering, which feels poised to take off or fall asleep at any moment. The band explain: “‘Burglar' shifts between states of consciousness, like slipping in and out of a dream in the early hours of morning. There’s an uncertainty about what’s real and what’s not, and false memories of a half-invented history”. Check it out here now. -Holly Mullineaux
