Dutch alt-rocker [**Robin Kester**](https://new.glamglare.com/artist/robin-kester?ref=glamglare.com) gears up to release her new album, and the mesmerizing"Departure" comes as a first taste. The track hums along softly, leaving the listener in a state of wonderment, curiosity, and utter enchantment. This makes me want to listen to the album already, which will be out later this year via [Memphis Industries](https://www.memphis-industries.com/robin-kester?ref=glamglare.com). Musing about the single, Robin says:

> “Most of ‘Departure’ is based on a diary entry dating back to when I was thinking about maybe moving again (because I often moved someplace else during childhood and kept doing so in my adult life, thinking it might help whenever I felt unhappy). But at the same time I knew this literal escapism didn’t really ever solve anything. When I used this diary entry as part of the lyrics, I was afraid they were maybe too on the nose and perhaps I also felt a bit vulnerable because I’m more used to writing in a way that lets me hide things underneath lyrics and melodies.”
