Basia berättar följande om låten:

“This is a song about love at first sight–a rush of overwhelming emotion that feels definite, unmistakeable, and mysterious all at the same time. I wanted my singing on this song to reflect the way that I wrote the music: sneaking in moments while my baby daughter was sleeping, rushing to the Wurlitzer in the basement when an idea struck in the middle of the night. The string arrangements on ‘My Angel’ and the entire album were all written and performed by Drew Jurecka and I love how he captured the mystery and romance of love at first sight, the violins transforming into something divine.”

Albumet är samproducerat med Mark Lawson(som tidigare jobbat med henne på albumen Tall Tall Shadow och The Garden) och är mixat av Tucker Martine som bl.a har jobbat med First Aid Kit, Neko Case och The National.

Basia Bulat har spelat många gånger I Sverige och hennes album har hyllats unisont i svensk press. ”Basia Bulat når nya känslomässiga höjder” skrev Aftonbladet om albumet Are You In Love? och gav det 4/5 I betyg. I vår ger sig Basia ut på stor turné och sannolikheten är stor att hon snart återkommer till Skandinavien!

Här kan du läsa mer om bakgrunden till albumet:

The property at the heart of Basia’s Palace is at once Bulat’s apartment, her jam-space, and the inside of her head. It is a place festooned with love and memory, and bad wiring; it’s a paradise that comes alive in the wee hours of the night–a time that’s suited to video games and dusty old records, when you sit in all that richness and take in all the mess we inherit.. Basia’s Palace got its start in 2022. A new home, a new family, a pause: the singer was finally finding time to hear her own thoughts, to think about old stories, to boot up her Nintendo to play Dragon Warrior 4. It brought to mind anecdotes Bulat had heard about Leonard Cohen—how he used to do his best writing at three or four a.m., before his kids woke up, when he’d sit and toy with his Casio’s presets. Now it was Bulat sneaking down to play RPGs or to make music on her MacBook, listening for the spirit-world at a time when the veil felt thinnest. The songs she was creating didn’t feel like anything she had recorded before—MIDI soundscapes that floated and gleamed, like hidden levels above (or below) the action. And as she looked around at the relics and heirlooms of life, she found herself thinking about her memories differently, too, and finding new ways of understanding all that happened in her life across the years.

The album that emerged from all this is the softest and most searching of her career. Basia’s Palace is like a time-travel score, with Bulat akin to Chrono Trigger’s intrepid adventurer, going back into the past to shape the events of the future. After years of releasing records where live performance came first—culminating in The Garden, which reimagined some of her best-loved songs with help from a string quartet—the singer-songwriter wanted to express herself in a completely different way, composing with MIDI instead of piano or guitar. She found herself moving through a dreamworld of whispers, synths, early Eurovision tunes–and her great uncle’s gauzy Maryla Rodowicz and Marek Grechuta LPs. As a result, Basia’s Palace feels like an album that was concealed behind the backings of Bulat’s childhood photos, where mystery and romance mingle over squelchy synths, drum machine, and soaring string arrangements (“My Angel”); where a quiet garden scene is built to a deafening sublime (“Laughter”); where Bulat makes a track she’s been threatening to make for years, a folk-song named for a genre of Polish dance music that was beloved by her late father (“Disco Polo”).

Throughout, Bulat pays tribute to the magic of creation and the spellwork of performance. This is the truest location of Basia’s Palace: not just the Mile End jam-space where she recorded much of this LP; not just her home, her family, or her searching spirit. But the moment itself—the one that happens on-stage, or in the instant of creation—when a song leaves Basia’s heart and leaps onto her lips.
