Influenced by Larry Heard, Ron Trent, Brian Eno, Theo Parrish. Fletcher Reed grew up in a terraced house in Stoke-on-Trent, UK, that smelled of his ceramicist mother's clay and his factory-worker father's machine oil. At 21, he moved to Chicago, chasing the ghost of the house music he'd heard on his dad's old records. He now works as a night porter, writing atmospheric lounge tracks on a vintage Juno-106 synthesizer during the city's quietest hours. His music is the sound of the conversation between two worlds, broadcast from a small apartment in Pilsen he shares with an architecture student who has never seen his hometown.

Lyrics

[Verse 1]
The blue milk crate by the radiator, Ana
That's where your ghost will start
The silicate dust on the sills, a quiet map
Of a city pulled apart

[Chorus]
And the room hums a new song (hums a new song)
Not sad, just burning (just burning on)

[Verse 2]
I'll trace the verdigris on the window latch
And smell the gantry in the rain
It's the same cold as the Potteries, a different catch
The echo of a passing train (shadow: train)

[Chorus]
And the room hums a new song (hums a new song)
Not sad, just burning (just burning on)

[Bridge]
'The light here is different,' you said last October
Just glass and steel and wire
And I'll be happy here when this is (shadow: over)
A different kind of fire

[Outro]
Still burning on
Cermak afterglow
