Aura [2LP]

Amelie Lens - Aura [2LP]

Limited-edition sunburst color vinyl, housed in gatefold jacket with UV spot varnish with printed innersleeves and exterior screen-printed PVC bag. Amelie Lens' debut album Aura is the first full-length studio album to come from the Belgian artist despite being one of the most respected and sought-after acts in electronic music today. Of the album, Amelie says: "Aura is my story. Aura is about the connection between the crowd and me. Music has always been my escape, my way of turning my emotions and energy into something new. When I was younger, I would disappear into nightclubs and create my own world in my head. Being in the nightclubs gave me this feeling of belonging somewhere, I felt connection and freedom I had never experienced before. That feeling changed my life completely. So this album really reflects that whole journey. From playing tiny local clubs and driving myself through the night for gigs, to standing on huge festival stages, becoming a mother, building EXHALE and learning how to balance it all in life. I wanted Aura to feel emotional but still powerful, uplifting but raw. From big festival tracks to the trippy tracks I'd play at 4am at RSO. Although making this album is one of the biggest things I have ever done in my life, I wanted to keep it light and somehow playful. Because that is also how I am as a person. This is the most honest version of myself I've ever shared. I hope it brings some light, happiness and connection to others as it does to me. Because Aura is and always will be about my connection to you." The album consists of 11 brand new tracks, all produced by Lens.
