London dreampop/indie rock/shoegaze band Whitelands have revealed the video for their latest single “Cheer“.
The track features on their debut full-length album ‘Night-bound Eyes Are Blind To The Day‘, which came out earlier this year (February 23) via Sonic Cathedral, and is out now including a remix from guitarist Michael Adelaja under his howdogirlssleep moniker. Get it here.
‘Cheer’ is described by singer Etienne Quartey-Papafio as a “celebration of change, rebirth, and new life”.
Of the remix, Adelaja said: “It almost made itself. I knew that I wanted to create a very frenetic and progressive track, which supplemented the guitars which I drowned in even more reverb… A lot of the drums and foley are made from the same break, which was put into a myriad of effects, one being modulated by another, and by another and so on to create a completely procedural and unpredictable sound.”
