Today, Margate-based electronic artist and producer, Jaime Rosso, announces his debut EP Away– due for release on November 7th via Domino.

Inspired by Jaime’s time moving from rural Kent to South London, the Away EP explores the tension between movement and stillness, community and solitude, urban intensity and coastal calm. Itwas recorded across both locations, using his characterful hardware synthesisers and sample-heavy approach as a way of processing his surroundings. House, soul and dub form the foundations, morphed into something wholly singular through Jaime’s own psychedelic production style.

“When you’re leaving something behind – whether it’s a city, a relationship, or a chapter of life – you carry both the rush of possibility and the melancholy of loss,” Jaime reflects. “That contrast is at the heart of this EP. I was searching for the sonic meeting point between two homes; what they sounded like, felt like, and symbolised to me.”

Today’s announcement arrives alongside the release of “Frames”; lush, soulful keys and drumbeats are intricately layered with Jaime’s soft vocals. Lyrically, it explores Jaime’s first experiences of London nightlife as an outsider, through a spaced-out, introspective vision of wonder.

“I was instantly drawn to clubs and the feeling of being enveloped by sound,” says Jaime. “But as a newcomer to the environment, I felt separate, self-aware. I was in awe of the people in the scene who seemed to know the rules inside and out, the characters effortlessly commanding the attention of the room. Casting a spell on the dancefloor, moving under the strobes like the club was built especially for them. Add the haze-filled atmospherics of a midsummer night out, and that image became a memorable one for me. I wrote ‘Frames’ whilst that vision was still spinning around my head.”
