Manchester bass-pushing experimentalist I AM FYA is back with HOMELAND, an epic 17-track visual album that delves into themes of identity and culture offering a personal exploration of the first-generation experience. The entire album is the sound track to a beautiful piece of video work, and the full film was premiered at Supersonic festival in Birmingham
Afro-Futurist, Avant-Trap, Future-Dub, Post-Club, whatever you want to call it… these are statement tracks. Eavesdropped conversations and poignant Barbadian field recordings combine with reverb-soaked vocals, distinctive beats and soundsystem bass to create a singular music with purpose. These new releases see I AM FYA refining her sound, finding her voice, and diving into her family history.
