Daily Doses: Arrange + Ricky Eat Acid “P.S.L.W” From Single (2011)

Some things are worth coming back for.

Sam Ray of Ricky Eat Acid and Malcom Lacey of Arrange have been doing amazing things on their own for quite some time now. Malcom’s Plantation  got a very respectable tap for a 7.7 from p4k and Sam Ray has been mentioned on this blog at least 5 times, and probably that or more on most on blogs on the internet.

Kids these days…. Oh how quickly they grow.

On the third Ricky Eat Acid release, You Get Sick You Regret Things (2010), Sam Ray really showcased his talents as a multi-instrumentalist, as well as his ability to work well with the negative space in a song. Meanwhile, Malcom’s command of stark lyrical imagery against dark instrumental backdrops is what gave Plantation it’s depth. So the combination of those seems like it could be breathtaking.

And it is.

Here, on their first collaboration, “P.S.L.W”. All of their skill sets are married into a dark bleeding track of tremendous depth that shakes a little bit as it slides across your soul. One of the best tracks of the year.
