Romance & Dean Hurley - In Every Dream Home A Heartache

After that great tribute to Celine Dion from January this year, Romance is back with a collab album with Dean Hurley, a musician, sound designer and a longtime David Lynch collaborator. The result is somewhat ethereal, a collection of fleeting words and moments, lost-in-the-static mood pieces and ambient atmospheres. Sort of like Burial's beat-less soundscapes, but "In Every Dream Home A Heartache" feels like it is more meant for the ballroom from The Shining, rather than a soundtrack to those lonely London night walks.

You can buy tapes from Boomkat, or digital directly from bandcamp here. The whole album is available for streaming below.
