Distant Lover is the debut solo album by Israeli singer-songwriter Yotam Ben Horin, best known as frontman of Israeli punk rock band Useless ID. The album was released on October 3, 2012, through Hardline Entertainment.
Recording of the album took place between April–September 2009, with mixing taking place in February–March 2010 by A.J. Mogis of Criteria, and mastering in May–June 2010 by Doug Van Sloun of Focus Mastering, though in October 2010, Ben Horin returned to the studio to re-record some songs, which delayed the release of the album. On January 10, 2011, Ben Horin announced on his Facebook page that the final master of the album was ready, though it was delayed because of his prior commitments and lack of label until 2012.
On August 21, 2012, it was announced that Ben Horin has signed with Hardline Entertainment and also the song "Into the Blues" was released as a promotional single, for free streaming on Hardline Entertainment's SoundCloud page.[1][2]
It was announced that the album will be released in Israel on February 2, 2013, through the label Music972 under Hatav Hashmini distribution. The release was accompanied by a special release show at the OzenBar in Tel Aviv, with guest musicians Danny Sanderson, Amit Erez and Rotem Or.[3]
