Hatchie Announces Digital Deluxe Edition of ‘Giving the World Away’

Hatchie announces a digital deluxe version of her captivating 2022 album Giving The World Away today, along with the release of “Rooftops (ft. Liam Benzvi),” a new single written in the time between completing the album and its release.

The digital deluxe edition, out April 7th, includes five new songs including “Rooftops (ft. Liam Benzvi)” and the previously released “Nosedive.” Fellow Australian Jay Watson (Tame Impala, GUM, Pond) appears on drums on three of the five new tracks: “Rooftops (ft. Liam Benzvi)”, “Cast Aside” and “Dream On (Country Girl)”. Hatchie’s sophomore album, Giving The World Away, was released early in 2022 to widespread critical praise. “It’s shoegaze, it’s rave, it’s late ’90s mall-pop all at once, and [she] makes the combination seem completely natural,” said The FADER.

Giving the World Away is a sprawling work. Featuring extensive input from long-time Hatchie collaborator Joe Agius, it takes the celestial, shimmering shoegaze and pop sensibilities of her earlier releases, but with the volume knob cranked up tenfold. Built out with percussion from Beach House drummer James Barone, it’s synthed-out, sonic opulence is more structured and ornate musically with traces of ‘90s trip-hop and acid house influences. The album was produced by Jorge Elbrecht with additional co-writing and production by Olivia Rodrigo collaborator Dan Nigro.
