Melbourne multi-instrumentalist 808s & Greatest Hits (aka Skube Burnell) is today unleashing his latest effort ‘Nice ‘N’ Easy’ – the freshest cut from the forthcoming 808s and Greatest Hits EP set for release in August/September 2016 via Melbourne indie label Our Golden Friend.
Following on from previous singles, ‘New Bounce’ and ‘House of Love’, ‘Nice ‘N’ Easy’ sees Burnell continue his journey deep into the rabbit-hole of woozy psych pop.
Burnell explains new new track as “literally all about just doing what you want to do, and well, I guess it also talks about the opposite of that. It was my attempt at writing a Beach Boys inspired song and then it didn’t end up like that.”
Enveloping you in its own hazy dream ‘Nice ‘N’ Easy’ has some pretty impressive credits to its name, including recent collaborators Stu MacKenzie (King Gizzard & The Lizard Wizard) who mixed the track and the iconic Mikey Young (Eddy Current Suppression Ring, Total Control) who handled mastering duties.
Having released his debut album Featuring A. Fantastic Reprise independently via Bandcamp in 2014, these recent efforts from 808s and Greatest Hits are his most exciting yet. For more info on upcoming shows and releases say locked to the 808s Facebook page.
