• Laima Leyton's conceptual double vinyl debut album Home

• Recorded, Produced and Mixed at DEEWEE

There are two key elements that make Home such a distinctive project. Thematically it explores how the two core contrasts that inform Laima’s life can coexist. On one hand, it’s about domesticity – her love for her family and her frustration with domestic routine.

Yet on the other, it’s about her creativity – her desire to express herself artistically while still tending to her role as a mother and a housewife. “It's almost like a family photo album in another format,” says Laima. “I needed to find the balance in this dichotomy, to feel good with myself in both roles, and be aware of things that really mattered to me. To be a woman, a mum and a female producer: all of these feelings were in the music.”

Sonically, Home is also a striking proposition. It’s a package which features two records that are designed to be played simultaneously: Laima’s vocal and synth tracks on the TONAL disc alongside Iggor’s beats on the RHYTHMICAL record.

Syncing two records offers an unconventional way to experience the music. Rather than passively hearing the music, the listener’s need to ritualistically sync both records makes for an immersive experience.
