Camille Camille, the project of Camille Willemart, announces Enchanted Sea, out May 29 via Labelman. Her background across visual and musical practices informs a reduced approach, where silence and sustain carry the composition. Across the material, melody unfolds in short cycles, with subtle shifts in tone and timing guiding the progression.
“Saga’s Lullaby” is the new excerpt. On the track, Camille said “‘Saga’s Lullaby’ was composed during a quiet night sail on the IJsselmeer in 2021, as the wind died down and we slowly drifted into the darkness. There was no moon, only silence and complete darkness, above and below —interrupted occasionally by the soft sound of water caressing Saga’s hull. The melody and guitar picking had existed for four years, but the lyrics and final melody were written and recorded just a day before submitting the tracks for the final masters. The song took its time to take shape, but it was non-negotiable for me —it belonged to this chapter and therefore had to be on this record”
