Roger Doyle releases new album, ‘Homemade Ivory Dreams’
Written by rhythm86 on February 24, 2025
Irish electronica pioneer Roger Doyle has unveiled a new album, Homemade Ivory Dreams, which is out now on Allchival.
The vinyl release features ten tracks, all of which were recorded between 2011 and 2017, and carry ‘all the vivid – and here often hallucinogenic – intensity typical of Doyle’s work’, as an accompanying release put it.
According to Doyle himself, the title of the album “title is a description of what I do – making music in the home studio on a keyboard (real and virtual), reflecting some kind of dream world. Initially I had read in a book the phrase Homemade Pipe Dreams which I changed to Homemade Ivory Dreams – referencing ivory that often describes a piano keyboard.”
The album is a largely downtempo affair, with some tracks, including the fantastically titled Skunk Hours In The Demon Mist, delving into experimental electronica territory – as the accompanying notes put it, ‘it’s as if Debussy had collaborated with dance-music duo Orbital.’
