SUDAN ARCHIVES HOME MAKER

Multi-dimensional Stones Throw signing Sudan Archives captured our hearts and imaginations with her breathtaking 2019 album Athena - an album which saw her avant-garde violin work, experimental beats and catchy, melodic sensibilities intertwine. After what appears to have been a transformative period in her life, 'Home Maker' is a celebratory return that exposes even more of her pop star potential without compromising any of her intrigue and allure. Discussing the song's subject matter, Archives says: "It took nesting — building a home, investing in partners that were worth my investment — to shake my anxiety and depression...For me, homemaking is a service to mental health and coping with fear and isolation. This song is about the effort put into making a relationship work and giving love a place to live." We'll be attempting to radiate similar positive vibes whilst playing this on repeat. -Holly Mulineaux
