R.Y.F. has released new album “Deep Dark Blue” via Bronson Recordings, featuring Moor Mother, Skin from Skunk Anansie and Alos from OvO

If blue is the color of sadness, or the best color to reach authenticity, R.Y.F. – the project of the Italian singer-songwriter and musician Francesca Morello, based in Ravenna – goes even further with the new album Deep Dark Blue. Available worldwide as of today, “the album is an underwater album, maybe it is even a deep-sea album. The sound is dark and muffled, as if we were in a sort of cradle, a blue bubble, a sea cocoon in which to wrap oursel ves to regenerate and achieve peace, but whose casing also conveys energy“.

Focus track Smash and Destroy was born in the blink of an eye. “I was practicing the guitar on a base I had set up and 30 seconds later I automatically found myself singing, Smaaaash and destroy patriarchy!!! over 4 distorted chords, I couldn’t resist.” explains R.Y.F.

The track revolves around a distorted guitar riff, which is supported by a forceful beat with a martial procession and a song structure that alternates verse and chorus. A real electro-surf-punk anthem with a transfeminist queer message is once again heard loud and clear.

Born following a dazzling baptism in the mesmerizing sea of Stromboli, in Sicily, Deep Dark Blue is an album of suffering and healing which confirms R.Y.F.‘s destabilizing power. According to her: «Sometimes I experience moments of great suffering, in the last two years caused by my wife’s health problems. I was “broken inside” and I didn’t know if I would be able to go back to the way I was before. Deep Dark Blue tells how I felt and how I would like to rebuild myself. I still talk about the freedom to love, but I also felt the need to talk about suffering, and I tried to do all this with irony, in the most joyful way possible. And it worked. That’s why this is also a healing album».

In Deep Dark Blue there are also some important guests, underlining R.Y.F.’s rise in her international career. They are Moor MotherSkin (Skunk Anansie) and Alos (aka Stefania Pedretti, formerly OvO and Allun), united by feminism, queerness and political activism, to get precious artistic affinities stronger in these hard times of new repression that we are experiencing…
