On third album LOVE HATE, Jess Ribeiro traverses the landscapes of love: its amorous peaks, its rough rivers, and its dark valleys. Much like a concept album, Ribeiro ponders the metamorphosis of the many stages of love – attraction, passion, infatuation, adulation, longing, submissiveness, and madness. Whatever the theme, the near-untouchable quality of Ribeiro’s recorded output is astonishingly consistent and the wait for new music is always worthwhile.
LOVE HATE is produced by Ben Edwards (Aldous Harding/Marlon Williams/Julia Jacklin) and recorded as a 3-piece with Dave Mudie (Courtney Barnett) and Jade McInally (Jade Imagine).
Recording commenced in February 2017 at Edwards’ studio in Lyttelton, on the South Island of New Zealand. Having lost two previous studios in Christchurch to earthquakes, Edwards had embedded his new sonic temple in the side of a mountain. Ribeiro stayed in a tiny hut on the property, which lent itself to a daily routine of hiking down the mountain every morning to fuel up on coffee, before trekking back up to start work.
Release: April 12th, 2019, Barely Dressed Records/Remote Control
