In his latest release,“Sandringham,“ Haich Ber Na makes a triumphant return after a near two-year hiatus, presenting a track that seamlessly blends insightful social commentary with his signature inventive production. This single serves as a profound narrative window into a day in the life in Peterborough, infamously dubbed the UK’s most depressing place to live, juxtaposed against the opulent Sandringham Estate. Through clever, tongue-in-cheek lyricism, Ber Na casts a light on the often grim realities faced by the British working class, especially the younger generation.
“Sandringham” is not just a song; it’s a reflection of the aspirations clung to by British musicians far removed from the London music bubble. Ber Na’s lyrics poignantly depict the struggle of balancing minimum wage employment with fleeting moments of joy, all while nurturing the dream of eventual affluence. This narrative is a poignant reminder of the stagnant class mobility and the historical prioritization of the elite within the UK.
Musically, Haich Ber Na draws inspiration from eclectic sources such as NER*D, M83, and Arcade Fire, crafting a sound that is both uniquely futuristic and deeply soulful. “Sandringham” marks the unveiling of a richly textured aesthetic world that Ber Na has refined over the past years, melding underground sonics with mainstream pop appeal.
Be sure to experience “Sandringham” both audibly and visually, and keep an eye out for more innovative sounds from Haich Ber Na’s evolving musical repertoire.
