Genre: Psych/Folk/Indie/Funk. Features the singles 'Stornoway', 'Can You Play Me A Song?' and 'Lady Sun (feat. Hollie Cook)'. Skinshape (aka Will Dorey) releases his ninth studio album titled Another Side Of Skinshape on 27th September via Lewis Recordings. As the album title suggests, Dorey's latest body of work is somewhat unlike anything in his prior discography. However, there is always a consistent Skinshape thread which pulsates throughout all of his music - a kind of sonic dreamscape which echoes a mystical nostalgia for a sun dappled afternoon. Taking inspiration from childhood memories, Ethiopian rhythms, and even calls to prayer, Another Side Of Skinshape gained access to the most esoteric corners of Dorey's mind. Whilst 'It's About Time' and 'Ananda' display a slightly more synthesised palette than we typically hear of a Skinshape tune, singles 'Stornoway' and 'Lady Sun' (which features the hazy soul vocals of West London's Hollie Cook) replicate the same lifeblood heard on albums Nostalgia, or Craterellus Tubaeformis. Speaking on the album, Dorey says "Some songs pay homage to the 90s whilst others the 60s and 70s. Yet you may not perceive all of these in the form that they are presented. In any case I hope that the album is enjoyable and will fit casually into the flow of your day." Whilst making this album, Dorey experimented with various keyboards and drum machines, which are at times layered over the excellent drumming of Thomas Blunt, who played live onto tape. Blunt is well versed in the Skinshape vernacular, also being part of Dorey's live band. Indeed, Another Side Of Skinshape is due for release just before a run of UK and US live dates, which will be the first time the band has ever hit the open road. Dorey is a former member of the band Palace, has played Glastonbury, BBC Maida Vale and Shepherd's Bush Empire to name a few.
