‘Fate’ is the brand new single from Blue Mountains based Folk/Rockduo Piperlain, the follow up single from the EP ‘Shine on You.’ Recorded, mixed and mastered at Fireswamp Studios by engineer Josh Schuberth (Josh Pyke, Amber Lawrence, The Wolfe Brothers, Fanny Lumsden), in The Blue Mountains. Produced by Josh Schuberth and Benjamin Knight. ‘Fate’ combines indie folk and folktronica with progressive pop/rock sounds, tribal percussion, and Middle Eastern influences. The cross genre and eclectic style of Piperlain is present in the track and draws upon alternative folk/rock/pop, world music and percussive elements with the use of instruments including the djembe and 12-string guitar.

“Fate is about a new relationship in the beginning. Something special is forming between two people, but one must depart on a trip. The song is about the journey of excitement, anticipation, and contemplation of a romantic future, as well as the anxiety and desperation of waiting for someone special to return. Then, realising that when they do come back, that they have a special connection and can start their journey together. The track uses sustained guitar created with an EBow to create a mystical, ambient sound that acts as a counterpart to the heartfelt lead vocal and also compliments the sustained vocals in the bridge section, which was written with the ocean in mind, to represent the waves of anxiety and anticipation, also a metaphor for the departure and return” Rebecca Voorn-Knight commented.
