Speaking about the 'New
York' video, director and animator Dan Jacobs said:
"The
idea of alternate/parallel realities is something I have always enjoyed
exploring in my work, and there was a big cross over with the themes Douglas
was exploring on his new record and particularly the track ‘New York’.
Working
in 3D enabled us to stick very close to the original ideas behind the track -
the idea of a fragmented/distorted or romanticised memory of a place, and being
unable to distinguish between what was real and what is imaginary, or
influenced by other imagery. By
3D scanning Douglas we were able to directly insert him into the world we
created, which opened up some really interesting ways of exploring his conflict
with the environment.
The
song’s got a real moody/noir tone to it, with these great explosive moments
which was a great dynamic to work with visually. I wanted to create something
really atmospheric and surreal, whilst making sure it was hard hitting and felt
human and real."

DA “AFORGER”, IL NUOVO SPLENDIDO ALBUM IN USCITA IL 14/10/2016 PER ERASED TAPES RECORDS / ADUDIOGLOBE
Following his acclaimed
debut Whelm, London-based singer-songwriter and pianist Douglas Dare
returns with his sophomore album Aforger on October 14th.
In a digital age
where memories are mimicked by pixels and identity is as malleable as static, Douglas
Dare’s new album Aforger questions the boundaries
between reality and fiction.
Inspired by recent
events and revelations encountered in his life these songs depict Dare at his
most vulnerable, whilst simultaneously reflecting our own obsession with
reality and technology back at us.
Aforger was mixed at the
iconic Abbey Road Studios and produced by long-time collaborator Fabian
Prynn. In the following conversation Douglas strips back the personal
journeys and realisations which preceded its recording.
Having first toured
the world to support of the likes of Ólafur
Arnalds, Nils Frahm and Fink, followed by European headline tours in 2014 and
2015, this autumn will see Douglas return to the live circuit for a series of
select shows in London and beyond.
