Following her 2020 “mini album” \u003cem\u003eThis Is Not A Democracy\u003c\/em\u003e, Kester was lauded for her stirring blend of chamber pop and psychedelia for her debut album \u003cem\u003eHoneycomb Shades\u003c\/em\u003e (2023) which was named Dutch album of the year by newspapers NRC and de Volkskrant and nominated for the best Dutch album by 3voor12.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp class=\"MsoNormal\"\u003e Now, Kester returns with second album \u003cem\u003eDark Sky Reserve\u003c\/em\u003e via Memphis Industries; a soundtrack to all the thoughts that bubble to the surface once the silence sinks in. \u003cem\u003eDark Sky Reserve\u003c\/em\u003e is Kester’s most artistically focused record to date, combining a rich, layered humanity in the music with minimalist lyricism. With the help of producer Ali Chant and a variety of other collaborators including Adrian Utley (Portishead) and Rozi Plain, Kester balances scenes of idyllic bliss from the “magical and strange” ‘Talybont-on-Usk’ with existential questions on ‘Departure’. Written in the nights of recording sessions in Bristol, \u003cem\u003eDark Sky Reserve\u003c\/em\u003e is the result of Kester writing from a place of newfound clarity: “I could see myself for who I am.”\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Recordstore","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":49974936895730,"sku":"MI819LPX","price":8.4,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0850\/1621\/5794\/files\/MI0819LPX.webp?v=1787632350","url":"https:\/\/recordstero.shop\/products\/dark-sky-reserve-opaque-blue-lp","provider":"recordstero","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
