The Japanese House, aka Amber Bain, has returned with a new single called Boyhood.
Fusing programmed beats and delicately plucked guitar, the dream-pop track marks the first new music from the English musician since 2020's 'Chewing Cotton Wool' EP, which featured Bon Iver's Justin Vernon. Bain said:
"This song talks about how sometimes, however hard you try, you can’t help but be a product of the things that happened to you or held you back earlier on in life. But also, and more importantly, it’s about hope for overcoming those things. And look at us now. Not riding away, but towards… something.
"This horse was very lovely to us, but I think deep down Bam Bam was the horse we were riding all along, and wherever I’m recklessly galloping off to in my life, Katie will be riding bareback behind me like a lunatic, arms around me, like we’d always planned. Rip Bam Bam xxx"
