Having all been on official hibernation for the past few years, it was a pleasure to once again hear the warm tones of Jimi Goodwin&#8217;s voice on his debut solo album <em>Odludek<\/em>, a touching and deeply personal record with complex arrangements and a panoramic landscape. Twin brothers Jez and Andy Williams have also returned with new project <strong>Black Rivers<\/strong>&#8230; and if the carefree euphoria of <strong>Voyager 1<\/strong> is any indication of what&#8217;s to come, then I am very much excited. The song is a glistening and ambitious effort, displaying a wonderful sense of freedom and escapism&#8230; but wrapped up in that familiar and melancholy Doves DNA. Artist Alden Volney has created an animated treasure to accompany the track.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-embed is-type-video is-provider-youtube wp-block-embed-youtube wp-embed-aspect-16-9 wp-has-aspect-ratio\"><div class=\"wp-block-embed__wrapper\">\n<iframe loading=\"lazy\" title=\"Black Rivers - Voyager 1 (Official Video)\" width=\"500\" height=\"281\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/ar7z1-RVlzw?feature=oembed\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe>\n<\/div><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.facebook.com\/BlackRiversOfficial\">https:\/\/www.facebook.com\/BlackRiversOfficial<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Phill Young<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>It&#8217;s fair to say Mancunian outfit Doves played a huge role in moving my musical tastes away from the mainstream and into the alternative.
