1. Shika Shika is glad to announce the new version of our classic Botanas series, this time featuring Scottish producer Kusht
2. This EP is a perfect example of Kusht's musical journey, as two of the songs were dug out from an old demo folder. "Blurry Wemba" began as a jam with an old friend, Veslemøy, who provides the almost haunting vocals as the track evolves into something playful. "Midnight Organ Call," the track that triggered the EP's overall sound, is also an old demo. The song was inspired by hearing a giant organ being played in Glasgow's Kelvingrove Museum and envisioned within the dark rainforest. Both tracks feature vocal sampling and chopping from the Wemba Tribe, the recordings are from circa 1930 and are catalogued by the amazing website revivethis.org. A Kusht release wouldn't be complete without a signature guitar track, and "Black Rock Cruise'' gives us that in a bluesy laidback tone
3. Kusht wanted the EP to have an adventurous feel and a hard-to-pin-down direction - "I always want the listener to be able to close their eyes and visualise a place. I think with this release, somewhere tropical and dangerous comes to my imagination. In fact, I see crocodiles, an old steamboat, and a casino within 'Black Rock Cruise,' but that's maybe just me..."
4. Tracklist:
5. 1.01 - - Blurry Wamba
6. 1.02 - - Black Rock Cruisin'
7. 1.03 - - Midnight Organ Call
