Rowlands emphasizes the duo’s mutual respect and plausible separate touring arrangements for the future.
Come Closer is scheduled for release on April 17, signaling a new era for the artists.
Aurora describes Tomora as a synthesis of Rowlands’ dance framework and her chaotic pop sensibilities.
The interview frames Tomora as a bridge between electronic dance music and pop experimentation.
