Fazerdaze Shares New Single “Flood Into"

New Zealand singer/producer/multi-instrumentalist Fazerdaze (real name: Amelia Murray) has shared her new song “Flood Into,” making the previously vinyl-only track available across all platforms for the first time. “Flood Into” appears on Fazerdaze’s first project in over five years – the Break! EP – out now via section1.

In Amelia’s words, “‘Flood Into’ is about a deep love and loss, and the reclamation of myself at the end of that cycle. It’s the feeling of my own energy rushing to fill me back up again. I wrote Flood Into in anticipation of a break up. The song embodies all the melancholy I felt from letting go of someone I loved in order to walk my own path and learn to stand in my own frame again.”

Fazerdaze’s debut LP, 2017’s ‘Morningside,’ launched Amelia onto the global stage with rave reviews from publications like Pitchfork and Mojo and tours to the other side of the world from her previous home base of Auckland. But the wheels were coming off behind the scenes. A combination of unhealthy personal relationships, feelings of unworthiness regarding her burgeoning success and general mental exhaustion soon began to manifest in her musical output; for years, Amelia found she couldn’t finish a single song. That is, until she relinquished resilience as a badge of honor and let herself crack open.

‘Break!’ was completed during a three-month long lockdown in NZ while Amelia was living in solitude for the first time, and directly in the aftermath of a nine year long relationship. Taking stock at an emotional bottom, the EP crafts an empowering portrait of surrender and personal reclamation. ‘Break!’ is a vital release for Amelia, who wrote it whilst on a journey of rediscovery as both musician and human.
