Faded Gold

Faded Gold is the music of solo artist Stefanie Chew, an electronic experimental performer from Liverpool UK. Crafting her songs from her love of post rock and electronic music, the resulting output is an eclectic mix influenced by artists such as Explosions in the sky, Boards of Canada and M83 to name a few. "Faded Gold marries this air of melancholy to mournful piano and an electronic fuzz which is both reflective, tinged with sadness but ultimately uplifting" Getintothis.co.uk
