Rainy Miller’s “July iii” feels like a new start

To make new albumDesquamation (Fire, Burn. Nobody), out November 2 via Head II, British artistRainy Millerhad to confront the very reasons he makes music. Lacking motivation and questioning his own motivations for creating, Miller says he began to "step away from his objectivity as a musician," and move toward a more honest and emotional input for his work.

The process clearly worked for the artist and producer, who has previously worked withBlackhaine, Space Afrika, and others in his North West scene.Desquamation (Fire, Burn. Nobody)plays with electronic, pop, and rap tropes to create something tender and experimental.

There are echoes ofBladee's otherworldly output on recent single "Misery is as Misery Does" (featuring strings byJockstrap乔治亚州的埃勒里),新歌“7月三世,”但是过犹不及iering below, catches Miller delivering fast-paced bars over a knotty drum patterns that then gives way to tranquil pianos. "Paralyzed for song long," he sings through a thick smothering of autotune. "Never felt the buzz." It's a crack in the sky moment, the moment a period of inertia turns into the possibility action.

Speaking to The FADER via email, Miller said: "'July iii' is a song about finding strength and resolution within a person or place, the act of love, and nurturing. From a broken state, to one of healing."
