Jennifer Touch - Aging at Airports

In Aging at Airports, Jennifer Touch uses the liminal space of airports as both metaphor and muse—capturing the tension between motion and stasis, visibility and fading, performance and waiting. The album contemplates the cost of being a touring artist: the hours spent in gate lounges, the scrutiny of aging and appearance, and the pressure to stay youthful even as time advances.  Musically, it leans into darkwave / post-wave / cold-pop with synthetic textures, insistently pulsing rhythms, and vocals that blend raw immediacy with moments of vulnerability. Tracks like “Behaviour”, “Walls of Patience”, “Dripping”, and “Rumble (Defiance)” explore emotional friction: longing, resignation, irony, but also defiance—embracing imperfection and transience rather than hiding from it.  The result is a compact, brooding but honest work that doesn’t avoid seriousness, yet isn’t swallowed by it—there’s an undeniable energy in the contrast, in acknowledging that even spaces of waiting have meaning.
