Phonica Records inaugurate a new series of releases that will fall under the �Special Editions� banner; a series that will feature collaborations, one-off releases and anything that doesn�t fit into the main labels� outlook. The first release comes from Sinkane, a hotly tipped new artist from NY. Sinkane is the project of Sudanese-born musician Ahmed Gallab. Gallab cut his own teeth as a youngster in the punk DIY landscape of middle America, and then found himself touring far and wide as a member of Yeasayer, Caribou, Eleanor Friedberger, Born Ruffians, and Of Montreal. He has emerged from it all as Sinkane, a project that identifies a renaissance within the space and spirit of the outposts of contemporary music. With an aesthetic range seamlessly shifting from soul to rock, and from jazz to pop, Sinkane�s vibe is timeless and the sound is now. Runnin� is a song taken from a collection of songs simply titled Mars. On this limited edition 12" from London�s Phonica Records, the album version of Runnin� is re-imagined as an increasingly dense longburn club jam by Daphni (Dan Snaith of Caribou fame) and as a more angular headjam by Chandeliers of Chicago.
