Release Notes:
Eglo Records are proud to present Fatima's highly anticipated debut album
'Yellow Memories'.
Featuring production work from the likes of Floating Points, Theo Parrish, Oh
No, Scoop DeVille, Computer Jay, Knxwledge and more... the velvet toned Swede
has truly crafted something special.
Offering a modern take on classic Soul and RnB, the album strikes a beautiful
balance of cutting edge, contemporary production, soulful expression,
melancholic introspection and vibrant, candy coated melody. An accomplished
singer /song-writer with a stunning range, her prowess and versatility are a
force not to be reckoned with. As powerful and mesmerising on stage as she is in
the studio, Fatima possesses a talent heard all to rarely in todays musical
climate.
Two singles have so far been released from the album, including the Flako the
produced double A-Side 'Family' and 'La Neta', the video's for which can be
found HERE and HERE Upfront tracks from the album are already in heavy rotation
amongst musical luminaries such as BBC Radio 1's Benji B, 6Music's Gilles
Peterson and Mary Anne Hobbs as well as wide spread support from contemporary
broadcast institutions like Rinse FM and NTS. Resident Advisor recently featured
Fatima on their front page having recorded a deeply emotive live performance of
the album track 'Gave Me My Name' - which can be seen HERE.
Born of Swedish and Senegalese parentage, Fatima moved to London in her early
twenties. It was here that she met Eglo Records label bosses Alex Nut and
Floating Points. After several chance encounters a relationship blossomed
leading to the creation of several now classic releases including 'Mind',
'Redlight' and 'Innervision' as well as her Award winning performances fronting
the Floating Points Ensemble. Other collaborations include Dam Funk, Shafiq
Husayn (SA-RA) and Scratcha DVA on Hyperdub. Currently residing in New York
Fatima will be returning to the UK/EU mid April for a string of live dates and
launch parties through out May accompanied by the Eglo Live Band. Her live shows
are not to be missed!
