Denton Thrift release new single ‘Confessional’
Time for some groovy electronic music! Electronic duo from Leeds Denton Thrif have just released their brand new single Confessional, via Majestic Records. This song is the lead single from their forthcoming EP, Sight, set to arrive this summer. Loving those lush synths and haunting vocals. It reminds me a bit of the music that played on Blade Runner, it instantly reminded me of that movie. Stream it below!
Speaking about the track the band said:
Confessional is a song written from the perspective of someone struggling with mental illness while trying to keep a relationship together. Having the realisation that they might not ever recover from the illness, their only choice is to confess to their partner that they may not ever be capable of change, hoping that the truth will solidify them. In a bittersweetness they know their partner will not leave, however, they cannot reconcile with their decision to stay.
Hailing from Northern Ireland and Devon the pair met while studying music at the University of Leeds. They first began song writing during their year abroad in Denton, Texas, later using this as inspiration for their name.
Denton Thrift combine rich vocal harmonies with deep
layered synths and environmental percussion. Built upon a wonderfully
sparse sound, Denton Thrift captivate with lacquered melodies atop a
blanket of intricate synth chords.
