Children of Nowhere - EP

Rosanne Erskine

Ramrock Records
RRR030 | 2022-07-29  
Ramrock Red Records are delighted to present Rosanne’s 2nd EP, ‘Children of Nowhere’, taken from her outstanding LP, ‘Cold Sun’. The original LP version is fundamentally a song about the power of music and dance to unite and connect us as people in delight, enjoyment, escapism and ‘joie de vivre’. In contrast, lyrically, it also touches on themes of children and people who find themselves displaced, alone, homeless, refugee or stateless, essentially those in extremely challenging situations seeking safety, a home, love, friendships, stability, fresh beginnings and a sense of belonging. The North Street West remix crew take the track and take it off on a dubtastic diversion with a Vocal Remix that has Rosanne’s vocals tripping out with xylophones, Darren Morris’s beautiful piano interjections, harps and French horns. Then, Dr R.E.Y takes it one dub step further with his melodica meanderings. A very diverse and wonderful EP.

‘Children of Nowhere’ evolved from an idea that Rosanne had put together with some virtual instruments and a basic beat and bass line. She then wrote the melody and lyrics, recorded the vocals and sent it all over to producer and co-writer/collaborator Saleem Andrew McGroarty. He then added to and refined the music, upgraded the drums and completed the production. The finished track retains core elements of the demo Rosanne created at the beginning of the process with the addition of live bass provided by Glasgow based musician Jack Dorrian. The song was recorded at Rosanne’s home studio, ‘Kitchen Sink Studios’ in Edinburgh, Scotland and finished at the ‘Sound Still’ home studio, also in Edinburgh, where Saleem works as ‘Sound Signals' productions.
