West Coast funk hip-hop collective Downtown Mischief are floating and vibing their way through the pandemic with 'Fall Into The Sky', the 2nd single from their upcoming album release Galactic Mantis, which will be out on November 13th.
Drawing inspiration from the Douglas Adams book Hitchhikers Guide To The Galaxy, 'Fall Into The Sky' is a posse cut featuring Downtown Mischief members: Old King Sundry, Krontokes, Wishbone Jenkins and Poppa Phat Smile
"'Fall into the Sky' was written in the studio," says Poppa Phat Smile. "Old King Sundry laid down that bouncing beat with those weird magical woodblock sounds and we all freaked. We were just dancing around the studio feeling 10 feet tall because before we added the e-piano, the beat sounded so raw and confident. Then Wishbone Jenkins laid down the e-piano through a Red Panda Tensor to give it that glitchy sound. The keys really changed the feeling. At first we thought it may be too "happy", but then we just gave in to the joy and started to float with the music."
A wild West Coast lifestyle fuels Downtown Mischief’s inspiration, and each member has a musical story to tell. This unique menagerie of musicians met through the raw energy of Friday night jam parties in Victoria, BC. Incredible live performances and hot vibey studio sessions gave rise to Downtown Mischief: a cast of musical characters, each with their own alter ego, who form a driving, pulsing machine that explodes with life on stage. This emerging band will not only captivate you with their beats, smiles and words, but they’ll get you moving and grooving!
Downtown Mischief’s new single ‘Fall Into The Sky’ is available now on Spotify, Apple Music/iTunes, and other digital retailers and streaming services. For more information, please visit: downtownmischief.ninja
