ISHI ENLISTS CAPYAC FOR GROOVY “GOODY GOODY” REMIX (FT.CURE FOR PARANOIA AND RUDI DEVINO)
ISHI ENLISTS CAPYAC FOR GROOVY “GOODY GOODY” REMIX (FT.CURE FOR PARANOIA AND RUDI DEVINO)
Having already geared up for the release of his long-awaited third studio album later this year, electronic outfit Ishi has now returned to unveil a third remix after signing with his new label: Icons Creating Evil Art. Ishi teams up with fellow Texans CAPYAC to flip his song “Goody Goody” with their electronic influences of jazz, funk and hip hop.
CAPYAC explains, “We decided, in the tremendous silence of an early summer evening, to remix a song by Dallas musician Ishi. After various attempts at transmutation, in our normal style of our CAPYAC remixes, we decided a scrambled egg approach fit best. The 2nd verse became the first, first verse became the bridge, each chapter of the song harking back to that musical egg we all know and love. We brought in Rudi Devino, a long time collaborator based in Austin to add some words to the mix. And in a matter of a few days, we finished the remix and continued our slow walk toward that magnificent and terrifying unknown we call ‘the incessant demand for consistency in the mechanical teeth of Spotify’s relevancy incinerator.’”
Ishi’s ability to successfully walk the line between an ambitious studio act and a multi-sensory live experience allows him to engage the audience in an uplifting celebration of life. His subtle undertones of inner exploration combine to create a concert experience that is unequivocally one-of-a-kind. Each night, Ishi intends to create an entirely unique environment of mysticism, awareness, love and acceptance. Adored by fans and critics alike, there is no denying that Ishi is an immersive experience that everyone should discover.
Fans have been waiting eight long years for the next album that is expected to drop in Autumn 2021 under Swedish indie label Icons Creating Evil Art, the home of Flora Cash, Summer Heart, and Glamour Hammer. It will be titled Sweet Gold and feature the hit singles “Not My Girl” and “Lo-Fi Love Affair” and the new single “Goody Goody.”
Following the successful release of the Yuksek remix of “Not My Girl” (supported by the likes of A-Trak, Kiss FM, Ministry of Sound, Amazing Radio etc.) and a remix collaboration with the internationally acclaimed EDM-producer Oliver Nelson, Ishi now releases his third remix “Goody Goody (Capyac’s Good Mix)” via Icons Creating Evil Art.
CAPYAC is a surreal dance act with as much Berlin/Detroit/French electronic influences as jazz, funk and the swirl of modern genres mixed in. Started in Austin, TX with a consortium of collaborators, the founding duo is now based in Los Angeles, CA regularly featuring guest vocalists, dance troupes, and fish mongers to elate and enlighten.
Covered by FADER, EARMILK, High Snobiety, KCRW, Magnetic Magazine and more, their music spans genres while appealing to purists and everyday listeners alike. Appearing alongside CLASSIXX, Washed Out, Holy Ghost, Tennyson and more; since 2016 they have performed 350+ shows across the US, MX and throughout Europe to much acclaim and confused smiles.

Deflecting Ghosts confront life’s darkest moments with latest release “Out of the Grave”
Deflecting Ghosts‘ latest release, “Out of the Grave,” combines aggressive, melodic identity with heavy guitars, haunting synths, layered vocal harmonies, powerful screams, and a melodic chorus. These contrasts create a strong balance between weight and emotional expression, giving the song a story behind the music.
The song was written shortly before the songwriter had a heart attack and was diagnosed with serious heart failure, associated with a personal battle for life. It started as a song, but the songwriter fought to live and make music, and it became something else. The experience adds another emotional layer to the release’s intensity, making it feel like a testament to endurance and the drive to keep making things happen despite life’s biggest obstacles.
“Out of the Grave” was mixed and mastered by Bulletride Productions’ Dustin Ridder, capturing the heaviness and melody at the core of Deflecting Ghosts’ sound. It’s a song that is both musically and personally meaningful. It mixes heavy guitars, eerie synths, stacked vocals, and a huge chorus. If you’re into alternative metal and hard rock, this is a potent mix of heavy instruments and a story about overcoming real-life struggle.
