While Thurles based Bright Falls has come to be known for Americana tinged alternative rock – The Widows Homes sees him collaborate with up and coming Carlow producer FENIX on a fast-paced synthwave track.
The track draws on the same retro-futurist aesthetic tapped into by The Weeknd on ‘After Hours’ – as well as the Vaporwave adjacent hauntology of the Drive soundtrack. FENIX provides a pulsing sequenced bass line to keep the momentum going behind Bright Falls contemplative lyricism.
It’s safe to say that The Widows Homes lays out a compelling case for subsequent collaboration between the artists.
