Dekker’s delicious summer anthem ‘Let Me Take You’ rises today, and it’s pure Gomez-gorgeous

WITH delicious, lush, sweeping prime Gomez vibes, Nottingham-based DEKKER (Brookln Dekker) today shares the summer anthem ‘Let Me Take You,’ ahead of September’s ‘Neither Up Nor Down’ album release.

“There was a desperation, a sadness that needed dealing with on Let Me Take You,” said Dekker, “and it’s amazing how it showed up in such a soothing way. Music has blown my mind in recent years. It just keeps showing up for me, pulling me out, picking me up and placing me in a better way.

“And with the album, ‘Neither Up Nor Down,’ I was chasing a particular feeling – something hushed but steady, weighty but open. I wasn’t aiming for complexity or cleverness, just a kind of emotional clarity. The songs didn’t take long to record, but I stayed with each one until it felt completely honest, like it was saying what it needed to, no more, no less. Every choice in the sound was about protecting that feeling. That’s what shaped the album more than anything else.”

‘Neither Up Nor Down’ is released via ‘Useful Fictions’ on September 26.
