Love / Lover Friend is a return to a much more nascent instinct for Rose. “When I was younger, I remember having so many feelings it felt like I would explode if I didn’t express them somehow. This felt similar to that—very pure and direct.” Between classical and avant-garde elements, low and high fidelity textures, constraint and catharsis, Rose produces Love / Lover Friend as a series of magnetic dipoles that entice and dismay.”

At home in her studio Rose experimented with DIY tape effects, recording techniques and modular synthesis, discovering a palette of new sonic textures. “There is a feeling that comes with recording in a certain way. When you’re dealing with tape, you’re printing to something that decays. There is a life-like element to it. When you work in digital formats, there’s a kind of detachment from that humanness. I wanted it to feel like both.”
