Daithi’s Holiday Home EP isn’t out until next March, but you can get a taster now courtesy of the Sinéad White-assisted ‘Falling For You’.
“At the start of 2016 I bought a field recorder and started recording the sounds of the west of Ireland in an attempt to build a library of samples completely unique to me,” the electronic music producer tells Hot Press. “I started renting out houses along the coast for weeks at a time, bringing a make-shift studio with me to islands like Achill and Valentia. Once I had some music together, I brought some of my favourite vocalists out to the west, away from the pressure of the normal recording studio environment. The result is Holiday Home, a five-track EP built completely in the west, using sounds from the west.”
