Red Weather feels like a humid heat haze, the shimmer of disappearing
water vapour in an increasingly overheated environment. The regular red
weather warnings of our summers, longer and harder each year. There's a
sparse beauty to the track that gently drifts towards an ethereal climax
where harp turns into synthesiser and soars above enveloping low-end
bass, all anchored to earth by the heartbeat that pulses throughout,
solid and ever-present.
Scrimshire and Amanda Whiting have been growing a beautiful
collaborative relationship for some years now although the work has
remained mostly unreleased until now.
Earlier this year Scrimshire produced Amanda's "Can You See Me Now" EP
for First Word Records, but back in July 2022 Amanda contributed to this
idea for an unfinished Scrimshire album called Believers Vol. 2. That
record ended up being mostly shelved and the Paroxysm album sprung up
and out in its place. But now Scrimshire is continuing to share some of
his unreleased projects.
And the next few years seem to promise the delivery of many more ideas
the two have been sharing since meeting at the Lush Life stage at We Out
Here back in 2019.
