"A very impressive return to the genre, with some seriously smart musical twists, intelligent lyrics and enticingly strong and expressive vocals"
Graham Reid - Elsewhere
"Love & Migration's overall feeling of beauty and diversity means there are also bright, festival tracks and plenty to soundtrack a night in"
★★★★ James Belfield - NZ Listener
New Zealand's First Lady of Drum n Bass Tali today releases Love & Migration a return to her drum n' bass roots and her first dnb album in over seven years.
The First Lady of Drum n Bass - is a moniker that has been earned, not given by chance, as the last 18 years have seen Tali collaborate with some of the world’s biggest names in DnB both in recording studios and on the live stage.
Love & Migration features collaborations with Vienna’s powerhouse producer duo - Roygreen and Protone, ‘The Bard of Manchester’ MC DRS, Spearhead Recordings duo - The Vanguard Project, Hospital’s freshest new MC/Vocalist Degs, one of Liquid DnB’s most exciting producers right now - SATL and New Zealand's own Kings of Halftime and Dubstep - Truth amongst others.
Love & Migration is an album full of moody, cinematic production, with lush vocal features from Georgie Fisher, Blake, Degs and Rosa Dub, and of course steering it all - Tali, with her, soulful husky voice alternating between unassuming almost whispered raps on her tracks Language and Sonder, to soaring uplifting storytelling on tracks like Situations, Silhouettes and Indigo Drive.
The album contains moments of soulful 'liquid' DnB featuring some truly sublime collaborations such as Falling Leaves, Reunion and the title track Love & Migration - interspersed with more dance floor orientated tracks like Paperwasp and Eye On You. The only non-DnB track on the album is Bone, produced by Truth. A tune complex in both emotion, and its stunning production.
The title of the album Love & Migration is a reflection on many forms of movement - physical, mental and metaphysical. There are themes of growth, wisdom, contemplation, the fleetingness of time, self-observation, and simplicity versus complexity in life and of course - love.
