January 7, 2021 For Immediate Release Rhye Releases New Single/Video, “Come in Closer” ​ New Album, Home, Out January 22nd on Loma Vista Recordings ​ ​ (Photo Credit: Emma Marie Jenkinson) Rhye, the project of Los Angeles-based musician Michael Milosh, releases a new single/video, ​ ​ ​ “Come in Closer,” from his forthcoming album, Home, out January 22nd on Loma Vista ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ Recordings. As presented on previous singles “Black Rain,” “Beautiful,” and “Helpless,” every ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ element of Home is intentional and meant to reverberate on a higher extra-sensory plane. This ​ ​ sense of purpose is just as clear on “Come in Closer,” which unfurls with ambient sounds from a rainstorm that descended upon his home studio in Topanga during tracking. Thematically, “Come in Closer” presents how “as relationships deepen and you invite someone into your ​ ​ ​ world, your life, your home, layers of appreciation, vulnerability, and patience reveal ​ ​ themselves,” whether it be a romantic relationship as in the song or a relationship between ​ siblings as in the video. Directed by Milosh and Genevieve Medow-Jenkins and shot in Big Sur, ​ ​ the video presents siblings “living without fear or inhibition, wild with the joy of simply being.” ​ ​ Watch Rhye’s Video for “Come in Closer” (“Come In Closer” still) Since the release of Rhye’s 2013 debut Woman, Milosh mostly lived on the road, playing up to ​ ​ one hundred shows a year and decamping in Toronto, Montreal, Thailand, the Netherlands, Germany and Los Angeles. On the heels of some major life changes, including a new relationship with Medow-Jenkins, he yearned for a more permanent space, a balm for the restless spirit and a place to simply be. Home, the follow-up to 2018’s Blood, is centered around ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ the idea of home as the core of creativity and community. It’s familiar in its synthesis of propulsive beats, orchestral flourishes, piano ruminations and sultry, gender-nonconforming vocals, but never have they sounded more cohesive or alive. Written throughout 2019 and early 2020, Home was recorded at United Recording Studios, ​ ​ ​ Revival at The Complex (Earth, Wind, & Fire), as well as Milosh’s home studio, and mixed by ​ Alan Moulder (Nine Inch Nails, Interpol, My Bloody Valentine). The album features the Danish ​ ​ National Girls’ Choir, who Rhye performed with at a landmark concert in Denmark in 2017. ​ Recently, Milosh and SG Lewis collaborated on “Time,” “an exuberant classically-minded club ​ ​ ​ ​ track” (FADER). It was written at Milosh’s home studio and inspired by a Topanga Canyon ​ ​ sunset.

The pandemic made Michael Milosh think about his artistic motivations, and he channeled that energy into a calming music video" — Vanity Fair ​ "[‘Beautiful’] starts with a throb of strings before cohering around a sharp beat and muscular bass line, distantly echoing solo Bryan Ferry tracks from the early Eighties.” - Rolling Stone ​ “[‘Black Rain’ is] a slinky, lithe track” - Stereogum ​ “‘Black Rain’ is versatile and intriguing, blending subtle synths, steady beats and Milosh’s lustrous vocals.” - Paste ​ “‘Helpless’ shows the potential for how fleshed-out and impressive his quarantine output can be.” - Uproxx ​ Download cover art & hi-res images of Rhye (Home Cover Artwork) ​ ​ Artist Site | Instagram | Twitter | Facebook | Loma Vista Recordings ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ For more information, contact: Jessica Linker | Pitch Perfect PR – [email protected], 773-942-6954 ​ ​ Sam McAllister | Pitch Perfect PR – [email protected], 651-528-3577 ​ ​ ## .
