Spacing

Out of Light is the new single from Wicklow dream-pop artist Spacing. Spacing is a project that came together after a year of writing and recording songs with a drum machine at home. The song was recorded with a full band in the Hive Studios, Kilcoole, where it was mixed and mastered by Eoin Whitfield of Ehco and formerly of Enemies. The drum machine remained in the recording with the goal of maintaining the lo-fi sound of its early demos. Lyrically, the song is about the desire to be left in the dark and the benefits of not knowing why things haven’t gone as planned. The accompanying video was filmed and edited by Ben Farrelly of Ragaire, it was shot in various locations in Kilcoole, near where the song was written and recorded.
