"Rowlands' kinetic yet precisely structured dance framework fuses with Aurora's more chaotic pop nous to create a head-spinning mix of techno, trip-hop and, on the prowling title track, a skewed take on prog."
"It's like how every plant in the world just knows which direction to grow up from the earth. They know how to become what they're going to become without anyone telling them - it's predestined knowledge."
"The album's elasticated lead single, Ring the Alarm, feels like the aural equivalent of mainlining a gallon of caffeine, carrying a deeper message thanks to the climate into which it's arriving."
Tomora, featuring Tom Rowlands and Aurora, is preparing for their debut live shows, including Coachella. Rowlands expresses anxiety about the upcoming performances, while Aurora remains calm and optimistic. Their debut album, Come Closer, showcases a fusion of Rowlands' structured dance music and Aurora's chaotic pop style. The collaboration feels instinctive, with Aurora likening it to plants growing naturally. The lead single, Ring the Alarm, embodies this energy and carries a significant message in the current climate context.
