Solace by Croquet Club
After a seven-year hiatus, French electronic artist, Croquet Club, AKA Jeremy Villecourt, releases new single ‘Solace’.
Originally featuring as the opener to the second side of Anjunadeep’s esteemed Deep 14 compilation album, the track now sees its full release on Reflections.
After cutting his teeth as a producer making soundtracks for global brands, Jeremy transitioned to working on his solo project Croquet Club in 2011. It wasn’t long before Anjunadeep reached out to sign his music, leading to a string of releases: ‘Awake / Cardigan’, ‘Jacuzzi EP’, ‘Only You Can Tell’ and the ‘Love Exposure’ EP. Championed by the likes of BBC Radio 1, BBC Radio 6, Mixmag, CLASH Mag and more, the releases quickly solidified Croquet Club’s status as both a credible Electronic music artist, as well as an Anjunadeep fan favourite.
In 2022, after letting the alias rest for several years, Jeremy returned to the studio, unveiling his latest single 'Solace'. The track is imbued with emotion, and it sees Jeremy’s delicate vocals sat atop a repeating piano, complemented by evolving synth lines.
Croquet Club ‘Solace’ is out now on Reflections.
Jeremy: "In my mind, Solace is a mix between Soleil (sun in french) and Embrace. Sun Embrace could have been another possible title. In this track I’m depicting a warming and a healing energy. An energy that supports all kinds of life, and brings unconditional love to everything it meets on its way. The song is built like the cycle of the sun as it appears and disappears on earth, on the oceans, the forests and on us as human beings. That’s pretty much all I can say about it, it’s a simple song."
