Jaime Rosso recently released his debut single “Away,” for Domino Records. The track was inspired by his move from rural Kent, UK to university in London. It’s a meditation on change: the anticipation, elation, fear and hope that comes from a new chapter. “Away” arrives alongside a music video inspired by the oddball eccentricities of the Thanet coastline, evoking the technicolor world-building of early 2000s music videos. Directed by and starring Jaime, it depicts his journey of self-discovery as he flies the nest, literally.

“I made ‘Away’ to capture the fleeting, unexpected moments of connection that can happen in times of upheaval and loss,” says Jaime. “The occasions when places, people, or creations give a little respite from the hostility of the outside world. The video is a translation of one of those moments. Filmed with DoP Chester Briscall Harvey, it chronicles a journey across Thanet through the blossoming of an unlikely friendship.”

One of the founding members of Social Records Society, the collective that puts on regular vinyl-only nights at venues such as Café 1001, Corsica Studios and The Carpet Shop, Jaime has also recently released a psychedelic acid remix of Katy J Pearson’s “Save Me” and completed a Balamii residency.
