DESERT SHIPS ANNOUNCE NEW SINGLE ‘HEAVY SOUP’

Following the BBC Radio 6 Music played singles ‘Neon’, ’Fire On The Moon’, and ‘Watching The World Stop’, London’s Desert Ships announce the release of new single ‘Heavy Soup’ on Friday 27th January 2023.

‘Heavy Soup’ is an infectious and uptempo fuzz blast through the cosmos and tells the story of a star gazer who despite copious warnings often finds themselves in sticky situations. A desire to escape the day to day grind, and the lure of temptation - the doing something we know we shouldn’t - leads our character to being “…stuck in heavy soup again”. It's about learning from mistakes, or maybe not in this case.

It was produced by vocalist/guitarist Mikey Buckley and recorded & mixed at his home studio. Desert Ships - completed by Daniel McLean (bass/synth) and Claude Trejonis (drums/vocals) - demonstrate once again the quality of their craft and an astute ear for an entrancing arrangement. These lifelong friends blend garage rock, dream pop and neo-psychedelia to create their own sci-fi blues.

A recent and scintillating live session for Act Cool Records confirmed that “Desert Ships are a fantastic band that deliver groovy, hypnotic tunes” (Music Is To Blame).

Director Gil De Ray brings his wizardry to the accompanying video and deliver the ultimate visual experience.

Mastered by Tim Turan (Supergrass, Killing Joke), ‘Heavy Soup’ is available to stream/download on Friday 27th January 2023.

The debut single from Night House + Reid is an 80’s tinged pop banger. 

Orchestral flourishes and analogue synthesisers are juxtaposed with angular vocals and captivating melodies. Put the past behind you and let’s drive!

fucking no space to unfold in berlin isolation no emotions no love to be felt, pain arising wishing for silence and screaming in the woods like i used to how can i exist in this city and must i?

I'll Take My Space

a little re-edit of Apostle of Apostles, 

love and gratitude to all the beings who contributed their presence and prayers into this sound piece.

May this serve for the awakening of the rose in each of our hearts, 

So be it

Original sample: 

"Human identity is no longer defined by what one does, but by what one owns. But we've discovered that owning things and consuming things does not satisfy our longing for meaning. We've learned that piling up material goods cannot fill the emptiness of lives which have no confidence or purpose."
