The summer solstice has just passed us by, a unique chance for people of the world to explore the lesser documented fringes of the unconscious mind.
Did you forget all about it? Well, don't worry because this track could well do the job.
Sinkane is due to release the 'Mean Dub' remix EP on August 21st, with City Slang stepping in to take care of the 12 inch pressing. Production duo Peaking Lights have stepped in, re-working 'Yacha' into a spiralling feature of echo-laden abstraction.
Deeply spiritual but also deeply fun, this is skanking summer fare which aims to re-align the circumstances of your soul. Aaron of Peaking Lights commented:
"Sinkane are such a pleasure to tour with! When I first heard Mean Love I was blown away by it's soulful psychedelia – not just a wash of reverb and delay psychedelic, but literally a new mind expanding approach to songwriting… Then I got into the stems to do the dub, and the fire within was lit! Ahmed's voice is amazing! Jaytram's drums and Ish's bass are fully locked in, and Johnny is a straight up shredder on guitar. I'm really, really happy with how these turned out, I hope you dig'em too. I hope I kept enough of the original essence that was already so beautifully laid out and freaked out enough for your trip 馃檪 Enjoy, brothers and sisters!"
