Rozi Plain Shares Ephemeral New Track "Silent Fan" (via Adult Swim 2021 Singles Programme)
There's this feeling I get every time I start a new era or chapter of my life. I know it's happening again when I begin to realize that I'm settling into routines. I suddenly have a preferred way to walk home again, and the uncertainty of what comes next begins to mesh with the reality that change has come. It washes over every aspect of life, coming in like a gentle tide.
Rozi Plain's latest track, "Silent Fan" (commissioned by Cartoon Network for Adult Swim's 2021 Singles Programme), embodies this sensation. Gentle and unassuming, preparing us for these upcoming winter months, encouraging us to continue evolving despite the cold. Rozi's airy vocals land between free-floating jazz, guiding us along a cold beach towards a warm fire. "Silent Fan" feels like a dream from a long time ago, yet familiar enough to assure us that we're going in the right direction.
"Silent Fan" features contributions from the Rozi Plain band – Jamie Whitby Coles (drums), Neil Smith (guitar), Gerard Black (keys) and Amaury Ranger (bass) with extra help from Kate Stables (This is the Kit), Danalogue (The Comet Is Coming) and Cole Pulice. Rozi says of "Silent Fan": "I think the song is thinking about encouragement and tension - giving it and receiving and where it is. I was particularly thrilled Cole Pulice was up for contributing to this track - their album Gloam got me through the spookiness of last year".
