With their third album Hasta El Cielo, Texas trio Khruangbin present a dub-oriented reinterpretation of their second album Con Todo El Mundo, a collabortaion with Jamaican-based producer Scientist.
In a press release, the psych-rockers state: "For us, Dub has always felt like a prayer. Spacious, mediative, able to transport the listener to another realm. The first dub albums we listened to were records mixed by Scientist featuring the music of the Roots Radics. Laura Lee learned to play bass by listening to Scientist Wins the World Cup. His unique mixing style, with the emphasis on space and texture, creates the feeling of frozen time; it was hugely influential to us as a band. To be able to work alongside Scientist, a legend in the history of dub, is an honor."
