Still Forever - Holocene Shift

Solo artist Amy Griffiths has really hit the ground running with her solo project, Still Forever. In less than three years, she has learned how to craft music, all from scratch and self-taught. After debuting her take on darkwave to audiences at Foundations Festival in 2018 in Manchester, she has not stopped. This has very much got her noticed; making waves across many venues during live shows – most recently, streaming a performance live from her very own living room, amidst the current global pandemic. This path has led to her second full-length album, Holocene Shift. At the record’s very core there’s a definite darkwave style that flows through it from beginning to end, having a bare-bones, stripped back approach. However, it’s definitely much more than that, as there’s a considerable amount of experimentation on display, being a lot more complex that it first leads the listener to believe. It’s as if Griffiths has taken old-school electronic music and dragged it kicking and screaming into the modern era, splicing it with a plethora of influences, taking it to strange but intriguing places.
