Last month ingenious drummer Adam Betts announced the release of his debut solo album, Colossal Squid. The news came paired with the insane opener ‘Drumbones’, the first taste of that release. As we wait with baited breath for the album to arrive, Betts has unleashed another tremendous single, ‘Aneek’, named after music technologist and producer Aneek Thapar who provided some sampled sounds. The track, co-written by John Calvert (Ghostpoet, NAO), “is demonstrative of the record’s ethos”, says the press release, adding “that, no matter how exciting or odd the texture, each track should be turned into a piece of music with real form and shape.
‘Aneek’ comes accompanied with a video from the live session which ended up being the actual recording. Watch it below and watch out for the release of Colossal Squid on November 25th via Blood & Biscuits.
