Exotic Interlude is Homelife's fifth album, and their first for Humble Soul

The world of the exotic lives in the imagination, a way of looking at the world. More than an interlude, Homelife have painted an Exotic English landscape. An urban crust on heathen clay, the village green from tower blocks. The tower blocks seen distant from green hill sides, Pagan pylons bathed in antiseptic sunlight fingers. Bright moulds, vines and blooms on Victorian iron decay. Feel the sandstone turn to limestone, rock of ages, dirty flags, caves of blue john, land of lakes and red brick evening glow. "Exotic Interlude" is a mature work, slow brewed. I feel I’ve heard it all in a dream, it's familiar but utterly strange. It might be words engaging me, emotions I can empathize with, uncomfortably honest, sweetened by being set amongst gardens of glowing music. The music is both ethereal yet earthy, with heavy use of acoustic timbres, swarms of coloured percussion, bulbous synths and fresh use of languid Hawaiian guitar. A timeless English summer of a record
