The rst track to be lif ed from the album is 'Movie', a melodic ode to romance writ en by Tom and his long term collaborator Carmody, and featuring guest vocals at the start by Tom's sister Polly Misch The track displays a di erent side to Tom's music as his calming voice lulls the listener into a daydream, giving us a taster of what is to come with the release of 'Geography'. The idea for the track came to fruit on with Tom want ng to base the song around old classic movies and the charm that came with them. The upcoming visual for 'Movie' is a culminat on of old footage from Tom's grandparents in Germany in the 40's adding a personal narrative for Tom and his music. The artwork was created by Tom's mother Carol who has consistently contributed to visuals for his previous releases. The silhouet es of Tom facing himself represent challenging himself to create a new landscape in his different moods and stages of creativity. Woven in with ideas of contour lines and illusion we see one thing, then another, in the same way that music has its own multilayered language. This release sees Tom exploring his songwriting and his own vocals, singing on most of the tracks plus exciting features still to be announced, we get our rst preview with the tender vocals featured on 'Movie'. 'Geography' is an exploration of a musical landscape, named after a passion of Tom's which was never pursued, it dances between genres including Disco, Soul, Hip-Hop and Jazz, a true testament to Tom's diverse sound and genre fluidity.
