Ross From Friends Releases Debut Album 'Family Portrait'

British producer Ross From Friend releases his debut album Family Portrait. The LP is distributed through Flying Lotus’s Brainfeeder label and follows up Ross From Friend’s Aphelion EP.

Family Portrait took over two years to make, working 20 hour days, and countless revisions. “I tried to be careful with every single sound” he explains, “Trying new things, making a bit more of an explosive sound. Every time I went to make music the things which would really grab me are the emotional things, and while I’m in that place I felt I could really focus on the track. That was a massive part of this album, tapping into my emotions… into my emotional instability.”
