Merle's Room Exquisitely elegant, entrancing, and energising! Wishing I was listening to this whilst dancing on a monochrome dancefloor in a fuschia-lit nightclub. Despite not being in that dream, listening to it right now at work is some kind of sublime :-)

    "Rhizome"
    From Ancient Greek rhízōma 'mass of roots',
    'Horizontal underground plant stem capable of producing the shoot and root systems of a new plant. Rhizomes are used to store starches and proteins and enable plants to survive an unfavourable season underground.' - Encyclopedia Britannica

    After years of exploring fictional dystopian futures in sound Ubre Blanca, like everyone else, found themselves living through a real life dystopian nightmare during the COVID pandemic. The ensuing chaos and forced hiatus from playing live changed their way of working and the direction of the new music. 

    Drawing on old and new influences ranging from the pioneers of '70s synth music to the contemporary wave of Dark Disco and Neo-Italo via '90s rave, House and Trance, the resulting album, 'Rhizome' is an unabashed celebration of being back on the dance floor and a way of reaching out and reconnecting with other artists and DJs around the world.

    From 'Narcopolis', a tribute to old-school House with an Italo twist and 'Pacific Palisades' recalling the band's 'Terminal Island' EP and '80s FM euphoria to the three part 'Nocturne' suite, which evolves from the band's long-time John Carpenter influenced sound through a space rock slide guitar solo into Synthwave territory, this album sees Ubre Blanca exploring the roots of the band's sound and influences and branching out in new directions. Released digital and on tape on young Archaic Future Sounds.
