about

On his second LP, deHoedt has created a glimmering world of neon lights, reflections and mirages. Inspired by classic undercover police dramas from "Miami Vice" to "Deep Cover", these songs are cinematic in their atmosphere and scope. Themes of paranoia, duality and dissonance are central to the album and inform the soundscapes beneath the lyrics. These are songs which exist in a certain world with a distinct mood. Ben recorded and produced the album in his home studio through 2020-22.
