Kate Bush The Dreaming

Originally released in 1982, The Dreaming is the fourth studio album from visionary artist Kate Bush and stands as one of the most daring and experimental records of her career. Marking the first album she produced entirely herself, it represents a bold leap into uncharted sonic territory.

Blending art pop with avant-garde production, The Dreaming incorporates unconventional song structures, layered vocals, early sampling techniques and a wide range of global influences. Bush’s fearless approach results in a richly textured and often surreal listening experience, with standout tracks such as “Sat in Your Lap,” “There Goes a Tenner,” and the title track showcasing her innovative songwriting and theatrical delivery.

At the time of its release, the album divided opinion, but it has since been re-evaluated as a groundbreaking work that pushed the boundaries of pop music and influenced generations of artists. Its intricate arrangements and imaginative scope continue to reward repeated listening.

This 2018 remastered reissue is pressed on 180g vinyl, presenting The Dreaming with enhanced clarity and depth while preserving the album’s complex, immersive sound. A landmark release in Kate Bush’s catalogue, it remains an essential listen for fans of adventurous and forward-thinking music.
