Salty Licorice’s fascination with Mata Hari, as detailed in Paulo Coelho’s novel The Spy, made her the perfect muse for Amare (p.87). She found herself drawn to the stark contrast between her own cautious approach to life and the fearless, convention-defying spirit of the infamous dancer and alleged spy. This sparked a creative exploration, enabling Licorice to step outside her comfort zone and inhabit a character brimming with audacity and allure.
Amare (p.87) started as a voice memo of musicians performing on the streets of Hamburg. They sampled the recording, which can be heard in the intro and outro. From there, Licorice and her co-producers got to work crafting the ambiance and narrative of the track. Knowing they wanted it to have an air of mystique, they envisioned what a high-profile evening may have been like for the famed dancer and courtesan Mata Hari in her heyday.
Amare (p.87) gives you the chance to dance with stars while lounging in your living room. It’s striking to notice how the melodics move around, while the vocals strive for momentum above the Arabic-like pulse. Iconic, in my opinion.
Licorice is committed to innovation. Amare (p.87) goes deep, not only sonically, but also philosophically. Check it out below!
