‘Higher Self’ is produced by myself and Dougie Stu (who you may remember from ‘Centred’ on my FIELDNOTES PT II EP that came out last year). We made this song in LA last April and it was such a fun one to make! It's about self-love, and the way I imagine my higher self engages and speaks with me, challenging all the thoughts I have about being hard to love. It’s a mantra of sorts that I hope will stick with you.
lyrics
It’s easy to fall in love
To fall in love
It's easy to fall in love
To fall in love
With yourself
The sea
The trees
With yourself
The sea
The trees
With yourself
With yourself
With yourself
With yourself
With yourself
With yourself
With yourself
With yourself
With yourself
It’s easy to fall in love
To fall in love
It's easy to fall in love
To fall in love
With yourself
The sea
The trees
With yourself
The sea
The trees
With yourself
With yourself
With yourself
With yourself
With yourself
With yourself
With yourself
With yourself
With yourself
Falling in love with yourself
Is all that you’ll ever need
Falling in love with yourself
Is the only recipe

A special, special talent.
The music and melody Cleo Sol is so healing to me.
Her music is inviting, and her spirit is receiving.

Like so many others, this came like a bolt out of the blue and, even though it's well before payday, I had to have this astonishing album on vinyl to prove it exists. The feel of the tunes makes me feel like the Impressions do, Curtis Mayfield, the big spaces and instinctive horns and stuff drifting in and out. Great grooves and I can see lots of ghosts nodding along to this with big smiles on their faces. At last! Anthony Cottrell
