Madison Willing, the London-based composer, producer and DJ, announces her debut album with the release of the single ‘Thinking of You’.

Birth is Madison Willing’s solo LP debut and an assured statement of her artistic approach. Expressive, expansive and cinematic, it retains the rich visual symbolism and filmic qualities that propel her work as a rising composer for film and TV. However, this is met with an acute intimacy which feels fitting for her first full-length solo project and expansion into the electronica genre.

“Expressing empathy has always been my main drive, in order to communicate the emotions of an external character on screen. While producing this record, and by looking inward rather than outward, I realised that my own personal sensibility is inescapable. For me, writing music and film scoring follow the same methods of personal expression.”

A distinctly visual composer, Madison Willing’s music has a mycelial impulse to find intricate paths between felt experiences and visual cues. With Birth LP, free from the need to write empathetically for specific on-screen experiences, Madison directs this sensitivity inwards into herself. Here, it reverberates and echoes outwards with clarity, depth, and space, and demonstrates an artistic maturity beyond her years.

“Written in the depths of Winter, Birth feels blue, intimate, cold and distant. I am most interested in how the light interacts with the dark, uncomfortable nightmarish feelings of anxiety and depression, and I wanted to see how I could make those things sound beautiful.”
