Deptford Goth returns as Daniel Woolhouse with "Map Of The Moon"
Daniel Woolhouse, fka Deptford Goth, returns with "Map Of The Moon" the lead single from his upcoming third record.
The as-yet-untitled LP will be released later this year on 37 Adventures and will follow 2014's Songs and 2012's Life After Defo.
“When I started the album, I realised I was approaching writing in a slightly different way, as if I was producing a group, or I was a band,” Woolhouse says of the new record. “So I pictured people in their places, and what everyone needed to bring to the song, which opened me up to recording with a new energy and an extra sense of freedom. By embarking on something new, I decided to separate it from the Deptford Goth albums.”
Speaking about new single "Map Of The Moon". Woolhouse adds: “It felt like the right song to introduce people to the new record as it has some familiarity in relation to my previous releases, but I think also displays some different ambitions. It feels to me like a complete song and sound, one that was written earlier on in the process of making this album, which gave me the confidence to keep writing... the song is a contemplation that meanders and repeats a little. There are interruptions and distractions. I wrote it from the position of trying to find a steady train of thought and to get out of a pattern of behaviour and thinking that doesn't do any good.”
