Collect Call
Collect Call is a dream-pop project hailing from the South coast of England. The brainchild of Joe Thorpe, Collect Call began after Joe, briefly, flirted with psyche rock bands, before slowly developing his own project, creating a space where he could express himself and rightly call his own.
The decision to do so has paid dividends with Collect Call going on to produce a nuanced, enchanting style of electronic dream-pop; as experimental as it is emotive.
Having released single Pretense at the back end of 2020, Collect Call have returned with their latest offering, The Golden Hour EP. Embodying the dying embers of the day and not giving up the ghost when all might seem lost, The Golden Hour exhibits Collect Call’s innate ability to create vulnerable, sincere and, ultimately, cathartic soundscapes. Recorded across various cupboards and studios, the final product is testament to holding onto your ideals even in the darkest of times. Overflowing with intricate details, lucid pianos, synths and samples, The Golden Hour is the cure to a troubled mind.
From the angst-ridden beauty of forthcoming single Simple, grooving and bass-heavy, to the dream-like sparseness of ‘No Amount Of Medicine’, The Golden Hour EP is an affecting and honest journey through the mind of a complicated individual.
Single Simple is out on 13th August 2021 and is taken from the forthcoming EP The Golden Hour, due for release on 14th October 2021.
