PREORDER

On April 4th, 2025, Brighton-based vocalist, producer, and multi-instrumentalist Penelope Trappes released her fifth full-length album ‘A Requiem’ on London imprint, One Little Independent Records. ‘A Requiem’ collects ten haunting soundscapes - incantations of dreams and nightmares, of death and grief, as well as power and autonomy. Carnal, transcendent cello drones are used to exorcise generational traumas in an evocative and macabre piece of gothic experimentalism.

“Summoning the great ghosts of vintage 4AD and Kranky, the Australian singer and producer makes inky dream pop that’s as heavy and welcoming as a weighted blanket.” - Philip Sherburne / Pitchfork

“...a striking work of evolution and deconstruction ...Meticulous with fine detail, and trusting of the supernatural forces that elevate it.” - The Wire

“...the album is starkly intimate and surreal — like watching yourself mourn intense tragedy from an outsider’s vantage point ...Unsettling in a way that feels magical” - Bandcamp Album of the Day

“Penelope Trappes has created a stunning album of music and sound art... the sound of dust motes momentarily caught in a shaft of moonlight, of spirits pushing through from another realm. Alluring yet unsettling.” - Electronic Sound
