about

‘Answers’ is the latest release from the composer, producer, vocalist, and clarinetist Holland Andrews. This is the fourth and final release in a series of EPs Andrews began releasing in 2021, including ‘Wordless’, ‘Forgettings’, and ‘Doubtless’.

From the opening track ‘Wonder’, the new collection opens with Andrews conjuring of a vast magical soundscape, where glittering ambient textures erupt into pulsating crescendos of dissonance. Andrews possesses a unique set of musical skills, which are deftly melded throughout the EP. ‘Aura’ offers a notable example, as Andrews’ operatic vocals and clarinet merge into a luminescent wash of electronic sound.

Andrews’ music evades easy categorization, evoking strands of contemporary classical, ambient, electronic, and experimental music. “Where do I belong? That's tricky for me.” Andrews says. “I have this voracious quality of just wanting to keep playing and keep exploring.” Like their past collaborators Son Lux, Nils Frahm, Darian Donovan Thomas, William Brittelle, and Christina Vantzou, Andrews has found a home at the nexus point of diverging sounds.

Along with the digital release of ‘Answers’, Holland also shares a limited edition vinyl containing all new music plus the previously released four-track collection ‘Doubtless’.
