Barbican Heights

Following on from this year’s critically acclaimed The Collapse Of Everything, Adrian Sherwood teams up with Speakers Corner Quartet and African Head Charge for new four-track EP Barbican Heights, a project which traverses the musical worlds of dub, jazz, electronic, afrobeat, and beyond.

Recorded during a singular day of creative spontaneity at Wicker Studios, the three acts, alongside Alex White of Primal Scream and Fat White Family, combined for semi-improvised reworkings of classic African Head Charge composition “Wicked Kingdom Of This Earth”, Speakers Corner Quartet’s own “Topanga”, as well as two new tracks constructed from scratch during the session.

Produced by Adrian Sherwood, mastered by Frank Merritt at The Carvery Studios, and released as a 12” vinyl EP with printed outer sleeve and labels

A1. Wicked Kingdom Of This Earth

A2. Musical Medicine

B1. Topanga (Wicker Version)

B2. Garden Of Inspiration
