More Info:

With 'Morir en otra habitacion', Wild Honey delivers a wonderful record full of emotion and warmth. Beautiful pop music that travels through an intimate moment with an unusual and touching naturalness. It has been just over three years since Guillermo Farre, the singer and multi-instrumentalist behind Wild Honey, released 'Ruinas futuras' (2021). Hailed as one of the best albums of that year, that record reflected his recent fatherhood and the exceptional circumstances of the first stage of the pandemic. Now, his new songs are the echo of a difficult and convulsive time after the death of his father. The result is a mini-album of five songs that swing between fragility, the unexpected and the everyday. It is a snapshot that captures, as Guillermo describes in one of his lyrics, 'slow motion avalanches'. These are pieces charged with great emotional intensity but also full of light, driven by the expansion and openness of their exquisite arrangements. 'When I try to remember when something happened, I always think of historical events or personal milestones like moving houses, the birth of my children or the records I've made over the years. Recording an album is sort of like taking a photograph of a particular life moment and I've got used to records helping me sort out the time in my head.' 'Morir en otra habitacion' is the deliberate effort to document the strange and surprising feelings of that period, knowing that over the years these songs will be the easiest way to remember those months. A feverish exercise of describing in songs that journey of extremes where making breakfast for my children, explaining to them what a person's ashes are or playing the game of making a wish upon seeing a shooting star all come together.' In it's vinyl edition, the album will include instrumental versions that, without the presence of Guillermo's voice, are close to the soundtracks he has recorded in recent years for film and TV. Although Wild Honey is a project with a marked personal character, 'Morir en otra habitacion' has the support of collaborators close to Guillermo. Co-produced with Remate, the album includes contributions from Clara Vinals (Renaldo & Clara), Anna Maria Biffi, Javier Lorente and Jose Maria Rubio. In addition, Sean O'Hagan (The High Llamas) is responsible for the exquisite string arrangements, which recall Scott Walker, Belle & Sebastian or the most delicate Colin Blunstone, and Ali Chant (Aldous Harding, M. Ward, Katy J Pearson) has been in charge of the mixing. Tracklisting: A1. Comida congeladaA2. El verano de Elia y ElizabethA3. Todo volvera a ser como antes A4. Morir en otra habitacionA5.
