Danish psych-folk songwriter Emile (also frontman of The Sonic Dawn) release his new video »Mountains Of Cape Creus«, taken from his upcoming sophomore album »Spirit« on Heavy Psych Sounds Records.
»Mountains Of Cape Creus« is hazy collection of fragmented memories and dream sequences. Equal parts acid folk and modern classical guitar, the song presents something warm and familiar, but at the same time strange and distant. A surreal daydream on a hot summer day.

Danish-French singer and songwriter Emile is also known for fronting Copenhagen acid rock band The Sonic Dawn. On his new solo effort »Spirit«, Emile unfolds a new and exciting side of his songwriting: each song ebbs and flows effortlessly with a great sense of purpose always centered around his voice and masterful acoustic guitar playing. On »Spirit«, he is backed by a small ensemble of selected musicians and blackbirds singing the sundown. The lyrics reflect an unpretentious cosmic consciousness simply marveling at existence as it is. “»Spirit« is about connecting with our surroundings, with nature and the universe. There is beauty in transformation too,” he reminds us. This is a different album from a different singer-songwriter, both surrealistic and easy to understand, accomplished and untamed light and heavy – like the passing of time. ► Also listen to new singles »Circles« and »Nocturnal«.

Shrouded in mystery, Emile creates an experimental and organic sound that is truly original. With his roots firmly planted in Copenhagen based The Sonic Dawn, the songwriter finds a new home for his more introspective compositions. The songs are based around vocals and acoustic instruments, often combined with immersive technicolor soundscapes. Drawing inspiration from late 60s counterculture and the surrealistic art movement, Emile’s music can be described as contemplative and highly lysergic.
