Jas Shaw (simian mobile disco) – 8 Aural Delicacies

Jas Shaw has spent the last decade as one half of the ace Simian Mobile Disco but has now decided that the time is right for him to release his debut solo EP. The EP, titled Love Doubled, sees Shaw grab the reigns firmly with both hands as he guides our ears through all manner of musical styles in an aural journey that isn't a million miles away from SMD's Unpatterns era. To celebrate the launch of the EP, we asked Jas to talk us through some of his very favourite aural delicacies.
Love Doubled is out on 25th September via Delicacies. Catch Simian Mobile Disco at XOYO on 18th September.
There are some tracks that have a bit of a pavlovian effect on me because they are the first track on an album that makes you feel a certain way. Cast In Lemon and Sand may be the shortest track on the Heathered Pearls record but it’s a great way to tell your ears that the next hour will feel good.
