March 18, 2024 Pink Sky unveil a scintillating single, ‘Incinerating’ featuring irreplica

Pink Sky unveil a scintillating single, ‘Incinerating’ featuring irreplica

LA-based husband-wife duo Pink Sky have teamed up with multi-instrumentalist irreplica on the lead single, ‘Incinerating’, from their forthcoming album Everything You Feel Is Real. For their live shows, Ryan and Angelica Hay are joined by a drummer and have enchanted audiences at major festivals such as SXSW, Midwest House, and Treefort Music Fest. The pair’s music spans a vast range of electronic music genres, from ambient to electronica to synth-based post-punk. Their intimate and emotive live shows persist as a defining feature of their artistry, showcasing their audio-visual project with performances in various settings and venues. Their previous albums, most notably Disenchantment and Total Devotion, have received critical acclaim, with features in Under The Radar Mag, Get Some Magazine, ADSR, Detroit News, and WDET Detroit NPR. Additionally, Pink Sky‘s remixes for artists like Taleen Kali, The French Tips, Virga, and Freddy Tyler Paul have further demonstrated their versatility and innovation in the electronic music scene.

‘Incinerating’ is a moody masterpiece driven by ricocheting industrial percussion, pulsing synths, and gritty bass, with ethereal, clear vocals floating through and tempering the distorted fray. The track narrates a journey of transformation and growth, drawing inspiration from 90s grunge, emotional upheaval, contemporary art, and dream revelations.

Pink Sky shared: “‘Incinerating’ is the story of someone who is falling out of balance and into a fiery state of agitation and chaos, an unseemly untended state, but rather than experience shame or frustration, the character instead is unaffected, without a care, that the secret garden she’d kept guarded inside for so long has overgrown and is now on display. What would have been previously horribly embarrassing and revealing is now treated as inevitable.”
