Puma Blue returns with surprise album, antichamber
Atlanta-based artist Puma Blue – the alias of Jacob Allen – has unveiled the surprise album, antichamber.
antichamber marks a sonic shift for Puma Blue with Allen writing away from the full band setup focusing on obscure electronic textures and acoustic instrumentation.
"At my home in Decatur, by the woods, I find myself in two weeks of cold and lonely solitude. In an attempt not to be consumed during a dark time, I start to soundtrack my time alone, not intending to share this music with anyone. The songs spill out, akin to journal entries. Never have I received music from the higher realm so suddenly," Allen says of the tracks.
"What begins as a private reflection grows into a full body of work, capturing the quiet ache of this time. It becomes a companion on long walks and bike rides. I listen to the mixes as I watch birds and rivers. I begin to heal," he continues. "When I gather the courage to share it with my partner and a couple friends, they insist this is Puma Blue music."
