RY X announces third album with new single "Your Love"
RY X has shared news of his forthcoming third album Blood Moon, and has unveiled new single "Your Love" to accompany the announcement.
"Your Love" follows last month's "Let You Go", and lands with a self-directed video that was shot in Iceland.
The new song was written with Howling collaborator Frank Wiedemann. RY X explains, ""Your Love" was written about a connection carrying a breadth of intimacy and challenge as it swirled itself in repetition. A love with gravity that bled into the beauty and struggle of both, and one that wasn’t aligned to be. A cry of the heart in essence."
"It’s rare for me that a song almost writes itself, comes about into form all at once," RY X adds. "This one did all in one afternoon. The production formed in the process of experimentation with drum machines and organic instruments and how they can blend together."
The new single also arrives with news of RY X's third album Blood Moon, which will follow 2019's Unfurl.
Blood Moon was written and produced by RY X, who also plays nearly all the instruments across the record. RY X recorded the album in Topanga, and it features contributions from Ólafur Arnalds, Eric Price, Rampa, Niklas Paschburg and Gene Evaro Jnr.
"I think there’s a whole universe within the dynamic of your relationship with a lover," RY X says. "There are many of those very honest, raw conversations on this record. It’s not all about the same person, but it is about the same feelings, the same concepts."
