Peaking Lights announce new album 'Lucifer in Dub'
LA husband-and-wife duo Peaking Lights have announced they’re to release a dub version of their recent album Lucifer.
The new edition will be released 10 December via Weird World and features dub edits from the electronic outfit’s Aaron Coyes.
Coyes had the following to say:
“Before Lucifer even had a song written or a name to it we had the ‘light bulb skull rattle’ that we had to do a dub for whatever was to come out of the studio session at Gary’s Electric. After spending the better half of the year on tour we managed to finally settle in to a spot in Echo Park where we set up a small studio and got physical with dubbing out the Lucifer LP. We have always loved the challenge of approaching the music we make from a new angle, and although the dub aspect to the music we make may be there in structure this is the first time we have laid it down by playing as the engineers.”
“Both of us really love how Lucifer in Dub turned out. We wanted it to have a different feel with the mastering; Shawn Reed of Night-People who put out our early recordings introduced us to Sonic Boom who we met while on tour and later worked with mastering some of our remixes. He really understood the sound we were after, there was no compromise in the low end, he gets our zone – warm; lush, round, heavy on the psychedelics.”
