Markus Hamence is Chatting in The Jungle Room with Cloning‘s Felix Parker.
Cloning have just released a new track ‘Just As You Are‘ and Felix and Markus get down to business on it.
Selling out shows around Australia and racking up millions of streams, Perth indies, Cloning have emerged as one of Australia’s most singular alt-rock acts. Swirling with heartfelt, soft-spoken charisma and eerie hues, their ethereal new single, Just As You Are, expands on the quartet’s established alternative charms and is out today.
With billowing soundscapes, lush driving beats balanced with poised serenity, and calming introspection courtesy of lead vocalist Felix Parker, Just As You Are flutters with nods to the likes of Radiohead, Everything Everything, Midnight Oil, Slowdive and The War on Drugs, expertly mastered by Brian Lucey (Cage The Elephant, Royal Blood, Arctic Monkeys) while also pushing the Cloning collective into spectacular new heights. “Just As You Are is about acceptance and feeling comfortable in your own skin,” shares frontman Felix of the new single’s enchanting lyricism. The band are self-recorded, mixed and produced by bass guitarist Nic Rollo, who explains, “being able to work closely together to push through quick iterations of a song and explore sonic boundaries on a level that would be hard with an external producer has been a game changer for us, recording and mixing feels like more of an extension of the songwriting process.”
