Julia Holter has unveiled a new song, ‘Evening Mood’, lifted from her upcoming album Something in the Room She Moves. It follows previous entries ‘Sun Girl’ and ‘Spinning’, both of which landed on our Best New Songs playlist. Listen below.
“I was inspired by the transformability of creatures, and how this malleability works alongside our capacity for love. I wanted everything to feel very liquid,” Holter explained in a statement about ‘Evening Mood’, citing Studio Ghibli’s Ponyo, her daughter’s favorite movie at the time, as a reference point for the song’s production style. The track also features a “heavily filtered ultrasound heartbeat” sent through a phaser. “I wanted it to sound like it was inside the body,” Holter added.
Something in the Room She Moves is out March 22 via Domino.
