Known for his retro-futuristic synthpop, Cromwell’s new EP features his signature blend of melodic choruses and spoken-word lyrics. This release follows Cromwell’s 2023 EP, “The Winter Palace Remixes”.
The title track, “Exercise Class”, is accompanied by an animated video directed by Martin J Langthorne.
The EP also includes “Madeline Trip”, a 55-second electronic piece inspired by Marcel Proust’s seven-volume novel “À la recherche du temps perdu” (“In Search of Lost Time”). This track also serves as an introduction at Cromwell’s live shows.
Hailing from Catford in South London, Rodney Cromwell, the solo moniker of Adam Cresswell debuted with the album “Age of Anxiety” in 2015. Cresswell is also known for his previous work with the indie-folktronica band Saloon and the electronic duo Arthur and Martha.
The “Exercise Class” 4-track EP is now available on all major streaming platforms, including Spotify, Apple Music, and Bandcamp.
