Just as the weather warms Amamelia graces us with Summerlong. The track's drums snap and bounce, boops and beeps echo and delay while an organ bubbles away and a janky old string machine spumes.

“Honestly, when I started writing this song I think I was just feeling really homesick,” gushes Berry. “I was trying to tap into that kinda wistful Tāmaki Makaurau summer feeling. I think Summerlong is about that tension of just being here now but wanting forever to come, wanting to kind of escape to something beautiful and distant.”

“There is a lot of Yamaha CS10 synth on this song and even more Roland RS09 String Machine. There’s loads of hand percussion and a generous smattering of spring reverb from an old hi fi reverb box I got on ebay.”

For Summerlong Berry returns to work with Madison Van Staden; “Madison's vocal performance is just perfect, so delicate and emotive.”

When asked how she feels now that the song is finished, Amamelia says “I'm shocked with how well it turned out and I’m just something I'm really proud of.”
