Ramrock Red Records are incredibly honoured to be introducing Rosanne Erskine’s ‘Fading Away’ EP, which is the first release taken from her forthcoming debut ‘Cold Sun’ album due for release on June 10th on Ramrock Red Records. Rosanne gives us an insight into the painfully raw, unfiltered process of writing and composing ‘Fading Away’:

‘It is about reaching a point of breaking through after a breakdown. When we are able to release and let go of the past, of all of the hurt and pain, and we can begin again. Each one of us struggles with life's challenges and at times it can feel very lonely and dark. It can feel daunting and impossible to see a way forward and make it through to better times. However, as surely as night will become day and day will turn night again, things will change. Through time and by listening and supporting one another we can come out of the darkness, and we can find our way forward again with the help and support of our good friends and family’.

‘Fading Away’ evolved from a couple of string and key samples that Saleem Andrew McGroarty had, which he then developed, put together with a beat and a basic bass line, added some other elements created using virtual instruments and sent it over to Rosanne via the internet. Rosanne then wrote a melody and lyrics and recorded the vocals and sent that back to him to complete the production. The finished track is almost identical to the demo instrumental Saleem sent to Rosanne at the very beginning of the process with the addition of a bass line which Edinburgh based musician Cameron Bradley recorded for the duo. The song was recorded both at Rosanne’s home studio, ‘Kitchen Sink Studios’ in Edinburgh, Scotland and mixed at the ‘Sound Signals’ home studio also in Edinburgh where Saleem works from and where he also completed the final production. The North Street West crew took their inspiration from the beautiful remixes by Frankie Knuckles + Eric Kupper of Hercules + the Love Affair ‘Blind’ and Holly Johnson’s anthemic ‘Follow your heart’ to create a subtle dance remix that understands and amplifies the message of hope in ‘Fading Away’.
