TORRES presents the brand new single, “I got the fear”
TORRES – AKA Mackenzie Scott – presents “I got the fear,” which is taken the forthcoming album, What an enormous room.
"I got the fear" was produced by Scott and Sarah Jaffe, with the accompanying “I got the fear” video being helmed by Dani Okon, who also directed the video for lead single “Collect".
“A collective dread has been mounting. Everyone I know is having a brawl with the universe, with themselves… wars, climate catastrophe, a pandemic, the worldwide regression on human rights, the political hellscape — it affects everybody, and I know we’re all feeling it in waves of varying degree all the time. I think it’s really important that we find a way to get our hopes back up," Scott says of the song.
"I’m here to try to help light the way if I can. Most days I really believe humanity will find a way. But there’s a nagging anxiety that maybe that won’t happen. One has to wonder if it’s a self-fulfilling prophecy that a species that believes it’s doomed will doom itself.”
What an enormous room was recorded at Durham, North Carolina’s Stadium Heights Sound last fall and follows the release of Scott’s celebrated 2021 album, Thirstier. Alongside production work from Scott and Jaffe, the album was engineered by Ryan Pickett, mixed in Bristol by TJ Allen, and mastered by indie stalwart Heba Kadry. Each of the album’s ten songs was written by Scott, who plays guitar, bass, synths, organ, piano, and programmed drums, with Jaffe and Allen also contributing to various instrumentation.
What an enormous room, is set for release on 26 January 2024 on Merge Records, and is available to pre-order now.
