Pink Sky Premieres Their Haunting, Edgy Single “Incinerating” ft. irreplica

Alt-rock duo Pink Sky, made up of Ryan and Angelica Hay, teams up with multi-instrumentalist irreplica on their new single, “Incinerating,” lifted from their forthcoming album, Everything You Feel Is Real.

Inspired by cinema, noir, dystopian grayscales, and heavily agitated synthesizers, Everything You Feel Is Real pushes the boundaries of sonic expression while inviting listeners on a journey of introspection.

Talking about the new single, Pink Sky shares:

“‘Incinerating’ is the story of someone who is falling out of balance and into a fiery state of agitation and chaos, an unseemly untended state, but rather than experience shame or frustration, the character instead is unaffected, without a care, that the secret garden she’d kept guarded inside for so long has overgrown and is now on display. What would have been previously horribly embarrassing and revealing is now treated as inevitable.”

A chance encounter with irreplica, the brainchild of Christopher Morse, at a Low concert led to the collaboration, marking a significant milestone for Pink Sky, who up till now wrote, recorded, produced, and mixed all their music themselves.

Pink Sky’s previous albums, most notably Disenchantment and Total Devotion have received praise from elite media outlets. Their remixes for artists such as Taleen Kali, The French Tips, Virga, and Freddy Tyler Paul have showcased their versatility and innovation in the electronic music scene.

Opening on darkly throbbing, edgy synths riding ricocheting percussion, “Incinerating” discharges feverish, layered textures of synth-pop that take on clotted surges of jagged alt-rock. Atmospheric, almost chanting vocals imbue the lyrics with tones at once pacifying and haunting.

Wickedly seductive, there’s a thread of consuming, reckless obsession running through “Incinerating,” like a mystery asserting itself.
